'''Masers''' are the primary method of communication on [[UNSC]] starships and orbital platforms. They operate by means of emitting microwave radiation; the word "maser" was originally derived from the acronym ''Microwave Amplification by Simulated Emission of Radiation''. Masers are effective for short-range, interplanetary communications, but as they are limited to the speed of light, they are too slow to be effectively used over interstellar distances.<ref>'''[[Halo: Contact Harvest]]''', ''page 25''</ref> | '''Masers''' are the primary method of communication on [[UNSC]] starships and orbital platforms.
