The '''UNSC''' '''''Apocalypso''''' was a [[UNSC]] [[UNSC Navy|Naval]] [[ONI|Intelligence]] [[UNSC Prowler|prowler]]. | |||
==Service history== | |||
While in [[Covenant]] space, the ''Apocalypso'' intercepted Covenant transmissions detailing attacks on [[Troy]] and [[Harmony]]. The Covenant, suspecting that their transmissions were intercepted, sent out a [[wikipedia:Trojan horse (computing)|Trojan Horse]] [[Artificial intelligence|AI]] buried in a transmission that the ''Apocalypso'' was meant to receive. The AI, calling itself the [[Seeker (AI)|Seeker]], began to subtly corrupt the shipboard AI, [[Melissa (AI)|Melissa]]. | |||
Realizing that there was something wrong with her AI, [[Greene|Captain Greene]] decided to bring the ship back to [[Earth]]. Just as the ship was about to head back, long-range scanners picked up a [[Deep-Space Artifact|curious object]] floating in space. The ship's crew believed that the object was a Covenant artifact of new design, but it was in fact a [[Forerunner]] artifact. | |||
The Seeker attempted to alert the Covenant of the artifact's existence without the ''Apocalypso'' taking notice. Melissa influenced a crew member to fiddle with the Forerunner artifact. The artifact sent out an explosion through [[Slipspace]], causing the ship to crash within Lunar orbit and blacking out communications in the Solar System for about [[seven]] seconds. | |||
==Trivia== | |||
At one point, Melissa says it was nearly [[seven]] seconds. However, later she says that it was over seven seconds, although this could be an exaggeration. | |||
