Re: Halos can move?
Posted By: replay <replay0@hotmail.com>Date: 2/1/05 6:07 p.m.

In Response To: Re: Halos can move? (iago)

: Considering 343's remark at the end I'd say it's a very strong possibility
: that Halos can move, to a certain extent anyway: 343: Fail-safe protocol:
: In the event of an unexpected shutdown, the entire
: system will move to standby status. All available platforms will move into
: position and await remote detonation.

I had to listen to Cutscene 31 again and here is the quote I came up with from GS343:

GS343: Fail-safe protocol: In the event of unexpected shutdown, the entire
system will move to standby status. All remaining platforms are now ready for remote activation.

If you took your quote from the "Halo 2 Script" that I've also downloaded from author Rachel Maille, his quote of that last cutscene is wrong.

: In my interpretation "platforms" means Halos. Furthermore,
: considering the position of Installation 04 - being on the LaGrange point
: between Basis and Threshold - at least that Halo would need some kind of
: position-correction system to stay at that point. Does this then mean that
: Halos can travel far away from their positions? My personal opinion,
: though not very well based, is that they can not, somehow I have a feeling
: of the Halos as static - maybe it's just the fortress reference.
: Let's also remember that the combined radius of the Halos is 3 galactic
: radii, meaning (as I think replay noted in the theory) that there is no
: need for even placment for once all Halos are activated. If one could
: activate only one installation at a time, should one wish, it would seem
: probable that one would place the Halos at strategic points.

Yes, the 3 galactic radii comment GS343 makes, if it is true, would mean there is no reason for the Halos to move.

Yet, the Tablet 5 Mural (linked in my theory link below) also mysteriously shows 1 of the 7 Halos being faaar outside the borders of the galaxy. In fact, if it also has an activation radius of 25,000 Light Years, it would not even touch the borders of the galaxy.

Would that mean that Halo is a spare Halo and can move to replace a broken one, or does that mean there are Forerunner installations outside of the galaxy?
