It's not something to do in Halo, but it's a question for debate. If the Halo Installations are built *just to contain and study the flood, then why did the Forerunner bother making an elaborate infrastructure within vast terrain of mountains, canyons, rivers, seas, lakes, plateaus, and grassland?
*it never said that every halo installation was for one purpose, each one could have it's own function.
Possible Theories that I've come up with: (1)The Forerunner also lived on the Halos as self-made colonies,
(2) The Forerunner were/are humans and they built the Halos to appear to have an Earth-like enviroment,
(3) The Enviroment on Halo: Alpha (the first Halo in halo) does not reflect the enviroments on the other halos, the Forerunner may have built each halo's enviroment to appear like the enviroments on other worlds they had expanded and been to.
ridiculous and disproven theory:
(4) The covenant were the Forerunner, and they built the worlds to look like Earth as part of their involvement to study and plan the eradication of the human race, they made the halo's terrain look Earthy to help train forces to get used to combat on Earth.
Post any other theories you might have, as well please!
