Re: Just how big is that Ark??

: I had come up with a scarcely calculated estimate for the overall diameter of : the Ark based on a couple of screenshots from the Cartographer hologram of : Installation 00. I was off in my estimate by a bit. : I was contacted this evening from a fellow named Zach who emailed me a nice : screenshot of the Ark, from the last end of the game as the Halo's firing : energy can be seen in the shot. He had emailed me before inquiring when : Halo 3 objects may show up on my scale charts. Needless to say, it'll be a : while yet until I get some solid info on the models of Halo 3, but the : screenshot he provided was fairly distortion-free as the foundry area at : the center of the Ark was nearly circular. : I'm attaching a modified version of that screenshot with some reference to : Halo's size and Earth's size in comparison to the Ark. Feedback is welcome : if you feel the estimate is off. Enjoy! (Thanks again Zach!) : Ark - Halo - Earth: Scale Comparison: Hey, Mr. Loftus! It's me, Zach! Thanks so much, sir! I never knew that one day I could help expand the Halo universe in this way. I am currently trying out a method of getting the camera out of the cutscene mode to get a complete shot of the Ark,so I may be getting that to you soon! I look forward to a future of helping you out when need be, and thanks again! Your friend, Zach W.
