Ruthersburg was colonized by the [[Unified Earth Government]] as a minor [[Outer Colonies|Outer Colony]], famed for little and barely charted.

During the [[Human-Covenant War]], [[Covenant fleet|fleets]] of the [[Covenant]] arrived at Ruthersburg and eradicated the planet's small population. Just as the Covenant began to [[Glassing|glass]] Ruthersburg, a section of the planet's fragile mantle buckled, tearing the only inhabitable continent apart in a rippling series of pyroclastic explosions. The barren husk that remained would have remained a footnote in history were it not for [[slipstream space]] routes discovered after the Covenant War, which placed Ruthersburg in a spur of the new [[Sol system|Sol]]-[[Epsilon Eridani system|Epsilon Eridani]] trade route.
