*[[Lieutenant (UNSC)|Lieutenants]] [[Hall]] and [[Dominique]] are introduced as members of the command crew of the ''Pillar of Autumn''<ref>[[Halo: The Fall of Reach]], unspecified page(s)</ref>, but are absent when the ship arrives at Installation 04.<ref>[[Halo: The Flood]], unspecified page(s)</ref> It should be noted, though, that ''Halo: The Fall of Reach'' states that there was a flutter in Dominique's heart when he came out of cryosleep prior to the discovery of Alpha Halo, perhaps indicating cardiac arrest. | *[[Lieutenant (UNSC)|Lieutenants]] [[Hall]] and [[Dominique]] are introduced as members of the command crew of the ''Pillar of Autumn''<ref>[[Halo: The Fall of Reach]], unspecified page(s)</ref>, but are absent when the ship arrives at Installation 04.<ref>[[Halo: The Flood]], unspecified page(s)</ref> It should be noted, though, that ''Halo: The Fall of Reach'' states that there was a flutter in Dominique's heart when he came out of cryosleep prior to the discovery of Alpha Halo, perhaps indicating cardiac arrest. | ||
*[[Huragok|Engineers]] are supposedly first seen by humans during the Battle Of Sigma Octanus IV in 2552. However, in ''Halo: Ghosts Of Onyx'', when [[Kurt]] is reviewing a mission of the [[SPARTAN-III]]s some years prior to that battle, he saw Engineers. Such information could have been kept classified by the ONI due to the secrecy of the SPARTAN III program. Engineers are also occasionally seen in the campaign of Halo Wars, which takes place in 2531. | *[[Huragok|Engineers]] are supposedly first seen by humans during the Battle Of Sigma Octanus IV in 2552.

*Chronologically, the first time [[Jiralhanae|Brutes]] are encountered by the UNSC was at the Battle of Harvest in 2525, yet the Master Chief has no intelligence on them until the attack on the ''Unyielding Hierophant'' in 2552. This could be accounted for by the secrecy of the first encounter with the Covenant, as ONI could have tried to cover up the failure of the negotiations with the Brutes. Like the Huragok, Brutes are also seen during the events of Halo Wars. | *Chronologically, the first time [[Jiralhanae|Brutes]] are encountered by the UNSC was at the Battle of Harvest in 2525, yet the Master Chief has no intelligence on them until the attack on the ''Unyielding Hierophant'' in 2552.

*In 2525, when Harvest was glassed by the Covenant, UNSC technology took approximately two months to traverse between [[Harvest]] and [[Reach]], but in 2552 it takes a ship only 19 days to travel between [[Reach]] and [[Earth]], when the distances between the three planets are only between 10 and 11 light years. | *In 2525, when Harvest was glassed by the Covenant, UNSC technology took approximately two months to traverse between [[Harvest]] and [[Reach]], but in 2552 it takes a ship only 19 days to travel between [[Reach]] and [[Earth]], when the distances between the three planets are only between 10 and 11 light years. | ||
