Are we sure it's snow? Volcanic ash looks similar to snow, though darker. Considering the fact that it was just glassed, I'm not discounting the possibility that it's not snow they're wading through but the incinerated remains of the colony world's surface and inhabitants drifting back down through the atmosphere. Their gear could be meant to stop them from inhaling the ash, which is extremely dangerous. Does anyone else think the same?

==Some things that don't quite make sense== | |||
In the book Ghosts of Onyx, it says that only 1 out of 6 ships (propulsion pods+slipspace drives) made it. Now, Contact Harvest says that many more than that made it. The only possible explanation I can see is that Johnson only had "a feeling" that the surviving pods made it to the RV point with the drives. However, his "feeling" was presented as being conclusive evidence. | |||
Plus, the Spartan-IIs were briefed months later and told that there were no survivors from Harvest and that the whole planet was glassed. One: it took that long for the slipspace drives to take the pods to the nearest colony world? The survivors seemed low on food and supplies to last three or four months and the drives seemed faster than that. And two: Halo Wars takes place on Harvest and there is much of the planet that remains unglassed. | |||
Finally, Halo Wars screenshots have displayed Forerunner technology on Harvest. I thought the "luminations" were really the Reclaimers (humans)? So there was a forerunner presence on Harvest? If so, why was the discovery of the Halos, years later, such a surprise? | |||
