The '''Lambda Serpentis system''' is a planetary system orbiting a star known colloquially as '''Jericho'''. Lambda Serpentis was formerly the location of at least one of the [[human]]ity's [[Human colonies|colonies]], [[Jericho VII]].<ref name="forp">''[[Halo: The Fall of Reach]]'', Prologue</ref>


== Role ==
==History==
In [[2535]], the Covenant invaded the system and attacked the UNSC colony on Jericho VII. Even though the UNSC sent [[Spartans]] to help defend Jericho VII, the human defenses were overwhelmed and the Covenant began glassing the planet.
In [[2535]], the [[Covenant]] invaded the system and attacked the [[human]] [[Human colonies|colony]] of [[Jericho VII]]. Even though the [[United Nations Space Command]] deployed [[Spartan-II]]s to help [[Battle of Jericho VII|defend Jericho VII]], the human defenses were overwhelmed and the Covenant [[Glassing|glassed]] the planet.{{Ref/Reuse|forp}}


In [[2552]], a [[Fleet]] of Covenant ships was ordered to go to the Lambda Serpentis system to collect [[Tritium]] gas for their reactors in preparation to rendezvous with the ''[[Unyielding Hierophant]]'' and mass [[Slipspace]] jump to [[Earth]], indicating that the system is now home to a Covenant refueling station at the very least.<ref>''[[Halo: First Strike]]'', page 198</ref> As such, it is one of few [[UNSC]] systems not entirely [[glassed]] and actually inhabited by the [[Covenant]].
Around September [[2552]], a massive [[Truth's fleet|fleet]] of Covenant [[warship]]s was ordered to travel to the Lambda Serpentis system to collect [[tritium]] gas for their reactors in preparation to rendezvous with ''[[Unyielding Hierophant]]'' at the [[Hawking system]] before embarking on a mass [[slipspace]] jump to [[Earth]] in the [[Sol system]].<ref>''[[Halo: First Strike]]'', Chapter 21</ref>


== Description ==
==Trivia==
'''Distance:''' 38.3 light years from [[Earth]]<br />
''Halo: The Fall of Reach'' erroneously describes the system as having two reddish suns. This may indicate that the Jericho and Lambda Serpentis systems were not originally intended to be synonymous.{{Ref/Reuse|forp}}
'''Coordinates:''' 236.6 deg, 7.35 deg<br />
 
'''Star:''' Two reddish suns.
