During the Fall of Reach, a large battle in space over Reach took place on August 30th encompassing numerous ships from both sides of the battle.[1][2]
Background
HYPODERMIC
- Main article: Operation: HYPODERMIC
The UNSC Circumference was a part of Operation: HYPODERMIC.[3] Due to the secrecy of the operation, the Circumference was struck from the computers of Reach Gamma Station.[4] Covenant intrusion software detected this oversight and deployed forces to the Station.[5]
Fall of Reach

When the three SPARTANs arrived at the space station, the docking bay doors were sealed and the station was not spinning.[6]
Later actions
At some point after the mission, a Paris-class heavy frigate and an SDV-class heavy corvette battled each other near the station.[7]
