==History==
Formerly part of the [[Forerunner]] [[ecumene]], the Khaphrae system and Installation 03 were discovered by [[human]]ity in late [[2552]] when the [[freighter]] ''[[Floral Express]]'', fleeing the [[Battle of Tribute]], stumbled upon the system on a random [[Slipstream space|slipspace]] trajectory dictated by the [[Cole Protocol]]. Upon learning of the discovery, the [[Office of Naval Intelligence]] quickly set up a presence in the system, establishing a research facility, [[Ivanoff Station]], in an asteroid cluster near the Halo ring.<ref>'''[[Eleventh Hour reports]] - #5'''</ref>

On [[2557#July|July 24, 2557]], the [[Ur-Didact]], pursued by Master Chief [[John-117]], arrived in the Khaphrae system to acquire the [[Composer]] from Ivanoff Station.{{Ref/Level|H4|[[Composer (level)|Composer]]}} Shortly after, the [[Conduit]] was discovered on Gamma Halo. A [[Battle of Installation 03|battle]] between the UNSC and [[Jul 'Mdama]]'s [[Jul 'Mdama's Covenant|Covenant]] and the latter's [[Promethean]] allies took place in the system over the artifact.{{Ref/Level|Id=opb|SS|[[Operation B: Steadfast Pursuit]]}} The Covenant intended to use the Conduit to open slipspace portals for Prometheans to invade Gamma Halo and give themselves control over the installation.{{Ref/Level|Id=opc|SS|[[Operation C: Valiant Hammer]]}} Ultimately, the Covenant forces were defeated and the UNSC remained in control of the Conduit.{{Ref/Level|Id=opd|SS|[[Operation D: Adamantine Shield]]}}
 
On July 25, 2557, following the [[New Phoenix Incident|Didact's defeat]], John-117, joined by the rest of [[Blue Team]], returned to the system to investigate Gamma Halo and entered a portal to the installation known as the [[Composer's Forge]]. There they learned the Ur-Didact had survived and was plotting another attack on Earth. At the request of the Didact, the monitor of the Forge, [[859 Static Carillon]], transported Installation 03 from the Khaphrae system to the planet housing the Composer's Forge. Following the Didact's seeming demise, Static Carillon did not return the ring to the Khaphrae system but instead took the Halo to an undisclosed location for safe hiding and repairs.{{Ref/Comic|HE|Detail=''[[Halo: Escalation Issue 8|Issue 8]]''}}{{Ref/Comic|HE|Detail=''[[Halo: Escalation Issue 9|Issue 9]]''}}{{Ref/Comic|HE|Detail=''[[Halo: Escalation Issue 10|Issue 10]]''}}
