Re: Number of Colonies and Contact: Harvest

In Response To: Re: Number of Colonies and Contact: Harvest (Deckard)


: Sure, happy to clarify.

: That's exactly how we think about it at Bungie. There are certainly
: hundreds of "habitats other than Earth" recognized by the CA --
: private orbitals, military outposts etc. All of these fall under UNSC
: security jurisdiction. But only the actual planets are properly called
: "colony worlds".

: Without getting into which names in your list are the former and which are
: the latter, suffice it to say that (per my earlier post) the names that
: show up in the books as planets are much more likely to actually be
: planets, if you know what I mean.

: Yes, I'm being intentionally vague. But we need to keep a little wiggle-room,
: if only so we don't end up having to retcon this post later on ;-)

: - Joseph

Alright, that makes sense. Thanks again for taking the time to clear up this stuff. :-)
