RAWR!
It says in like the first cutscene of halo 2:"They called it pillar of autumn..." "Why was it not destroied with the rest of their fleet?" "It fled, while we set fire to their planet..." Now im pretty sure the Pillar of autumn left before the covenant ever got down to Reach and before they glassed it, right?[Edited on 10.18.2009 11:49 AM PDT]

No, it stuck around, the fled after Master Chief destroyed a navigational computer core on a sattelite and returned to the ship.They left just as they were starting to plasma bomb reach.

Why is it referred to as "glassing"..? Truth mentioned in Halo 3 the words "..until the surface of your planet is but glass.", or something along those lines.Where does the term come from?

Truth mentioned in Halo 3 the words "..until the surface of your planet is but glass.", or something along those lines.Where does the term come from? because, and this is just a total guess, they level everything down to the same elevation and the surface is smooth and even like glass? maybe idk.

The elements in the ground when melted (high temperature from plasma) and cooled turns glass like. Start a bonfire on the beach. You will notice that under the fire some sand particles will turn glass-like.

What he's saying is the plasma the Covenant bombards the surface with is so hot that it turns everything on the surface to a smooth glass-like material.[Edited on 10.18.2009 1:11 PM PDT]
