{{Main|Battle of Earth (2557)}}
In a swift attack on Earth's orbital and territorial defenses, the [[Didact]] was able to position the [[Composer]] in a high geosynchronous orbit above the desert city on an early [[2557|July 2557]] morning. The Composer was finally activated and its entire population, likely numbering in the hundreds of thousands, were each converted into a "digital intelligence" and their bodies reduced to ash. The Composer was destroyed shortly thereafter and with it, presumably, the digital remnants of New Phoenix's residents.
During his swift attack on Earth in [[2557|July 2557]], the [[Didact]] was able to position his flagship, ''[[Mantle's Approach]]'', in a high geosynchronous orbit above the city. Despite resistance from the [[UNSC Home Fleet]], he activated the [[Composer]], converting New Phoenix's population into "digital intelligences" and disintegrating their bodies. [[SPARTAN-II Program|Spartan]] [[John-117]] soon destroyed the Composer, presumably freeing the digital remnants of New Phoenix's residents from the Didact's thrall.
Quarantine procedures were still enforced up to six months after the holocaust; the [[United Earth Government]] released a statement soon after that the attack was not of [[Covenant]] origin.<ref>'''[[Spartan Ops]]''' - ''[[S1/Departure|Departure]]''</ref> New Phoenix's infrastructure remained completely unscathed by the Composer's merciless attack.
 
Due to the nature of the Composer, the city's infrastructure remained completely intact.<ref>'''Halo 4''' - ''[[Epilogue (Halo 4 level)|Epilogue]]''</ref> New Phoenix was quarantined after the holocaust and remained off-limits for at least six months. [[John Sullivan]], an [[Office of Naval Intelligence]] public relations officer, released a statement that the attack was not of [[Covenant]] origin.<ref>'''Spartan Ops''' - ''Departure''</ref>
