Authorised as an emergency mobile colony by [[Project OUROBOROS]],{{Ref/Reuse|wf infinity}} the ship was constructed in the [[Special Assembly Plant Concord]] located in the [[Oort cloud]] surrounding the [[Sol system]],{{Ref/Reuse|Glasslands 422}} with construction beginning in [[2544]].{{Ref/Reuse|Mythos132}}<ref name="Infinity trailer">[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PsNWkjP65Cg '''YouTube''': ''Halo 4 Infinity Multiplayer'']</ref> The ship was designed by a team composed of [[Elizabeth Sark|Vice Admiral Elizabeth Sark]], [[Oscar Greyson|Commander Oscar Greyson]], and [[Dana Wolff|Doctors Dana Wolff]] and [[Sada no Okuni]].{{Ref/Reuse|wf infinity}} Secrecy was ensured by having workers permanently stationed there over several years with a total communications blackout in effect. The ship's massive building expenditures, however, prevented ONI from keeping the ''Infinity'' a complete secret. Many senior members of the Admiralty, such as [[Saeed Shafiq|Rear Admiral Saeed Shafiq]] of [[UNSC Procurement]], were fully aware of the ship's existence at the time of her construction.<ref name="Glasslands 390">'''Halo: Glasslands''', ''page 390''</ref> Eventually the Fleet took control of the vessel rather than the [[Office of Naval Intelligence]]. Captain Andrew Del Rio took command of the ship and her pre-commission crew years prior to the end of major hostilities in the war,{{Ref/Reuse|Glasslands 422}} though [[Commander-in-Chief of the Office of Naval Intelligence|CINCONI]] [[Margaret Parangosky]] correctly predicted that [[Thomas Lasky|Commander Thomas Lasky]] would eventually supplant Del Rio.<ref>'''Halo: The Thursday War''', ''page ???''</ref> | |||
As of [[2553|March 2553]], technology discovered on [[Trevelyan]], a [[shield world]] located in the [[Zeta Doradus system]], was planned to be incorporated into the ship.{{Ref/Reuse|Glasslands 390}} [[Huragok]] assistance in refining the ship's [[Slipstream space|slipspace]] navigation capabilities, in particular, was expected to push the final construction milestones far ahead of schedule.<ref>'''Halo: The Thursday War''', ''page 50''</ref> Unlike older warships which had only areas such as a gym or hangar space for [[UNSC Marine Corps|Marines]] and Spartans to train in, ''Infinity'' is the first known vessel to include a state-of-the-art virtual reality combat deck capable of replicating environments from across the galaxy,{{Ref/Reuse|Game Informer 52012}} real or hypothetical, using a combination of [[holography]], props, and simulated sensory input fed through a [[neural interface]].<ref>[https://www.halowaypoint.com/en-us/news/canon-fodder-beta-late-than-never '''Halo Waypoint''': ''Canon Fodder - Beta Late Than Never'']</ref> | As of [[2553|March 2553]], technology discovered on [[Trevelyan]], a [[shield world]] located in the [[Zeta Doradus system]], was planned to be incorporated into the ship.{{Ref/Reuse|Glasslands 390}} [[Huragok]] assistance in refining the ship's [[Slipstream space|slipspace]] navigation capabilities, in particular, was expected to push the final construction milestones far ahead of schedule.<ref>'''Halo: The Thursday War''', ''page 50''</ref> Unlike older warships which had only areas such as a gym or hangar space for [[UNSC Marine Corps|Marines]] and Spartans to train in, ''Infinity'' is the first known vessel to include a state-of-the-art virtual reality combat deck capable of replicating environments from across the galaxy,{{Ref/Reuse|Game Informer 52012}} real or hypothetical, using a combination of [[holography]], props, and simulated sensory input fed through a [[neural interface]].<ref>[https://www.halowaypoint.com/en-us/news/canon-fodder-beta-late-than-never '''Halo Waypoint''': ''Canon Fodder - Beta Late Than Never'']</ref> | ||
