Ok first off IT'S NOT REACH. People who think John some how arived at Reach, read this.
Halo First Strike, Chapter 19, Page 180
This is from right out of the book.
Admiral Whitcomb to Chief "We'd been working on a new bomb, called the Nova. It was a cluster of nukes, each with a lithium triteride casing. Now, these things, in theory, when they detonate, not only make a big bang like you expect a nuke to-but they also force their tritium cases together in one big superheated and pressurized center". He made a fist and slammed it into his other palm for emphasis. "Boosts the yield a hundredfold". A grin spread across his face. "Planet killers. We had planned to use these things in space battles to level the playing field."
A few paragraphs later.
Admiral to Chief "The countdown timer only has 20 hours left."
So yeah, after they left Reach (Master Chief and the others) the bomb went off. The only thing left of Reach is dust and echos (see what I did there). So it's not the planet at the end of Halo 3 Even if the bomb didn't do what it was suppose to it would have left Reach in two or have a MASSIVE crater in the planet.
