A '''slipspace anomaly''' is an unusual event that occurs in [[slipstream space]]. Several abnormal slipspace behaviors could be categorized as slipspace anomalies. Slipspace anomalies are very rare and can put a craft's ability to transition safely into Slipspace in jeopardy. | A '''slipspace anomaly''' is an unusual event that occurs in [[slipstream space]].

The [[Forerunner crystal]] found in the [[Menachite | The [[Menachite Forerunner crystal|Forerunner crystal]] found in the [[Menachite portal complex]] on [[Reach]], coupled with Cortana's incorrect Slipspace calculations also created a Slipspace anomaly. This anomaly caused the ship the artifact was in, as well as all surrounding ships, to enter an anomalous Slipspace dimension when transitioned into Slipspace. One could fire their weaponry in this sub-dimension, but Covenant ships could not recharge their shields. Shots fired did not obey the standard laws of physics and instead disappeared and reappeared in different locations until they hit something. There was also fog present in the bubble, instead of the black nothingness of normal Slipspace. | ||
