Re: Lots of puzzles...

In Response To: Lots of puzzles... (Alex Cross)

: I'm going with the Chiron training facility on Mars for one specific
: reason...the Covenant (duh duh DUUUH). :) As you said, Halo lies in UNSC
: chartered space, NOT UNSC occupied space. Even ONI would have to conceed
: there are risks to training Spartan clones in unprotected UNSC space,
: especially on a perilous alien world they know almost nothing about when
: they get there. In other words, I'm sure the UNSC wouldn't train there
: mainly because, yes, if there was a battle between the Covenant and humans
: on the ring, humanity might win because of the Covenant's reverence for
: the object, but it's also possible that the Covenant would find out what
: was going on, and learn everything. There's a greater chance of that
: happening on Halo then on Mars. Whether it be your ideas of Biological
: weapons (flood-spartan clones) or the tidbits of MJOLNIR Colonol Ackerson
: got his hands on, chances are they would find it.

Ackerson working on Halo, which, as some have pointed out, the UNSC (ONI) knew of, fits his profile well, because it's the best kept secret in the UNSC. The risk of the Covenant finding out something shouldn't sway one from this view point, because, as Dr. Halsey put it in First Strike, Ackerson was sitting on top of something that was going to get them all burned. This fits the situational example you've given to a tee;)

Thanks,
-Metatron
