"I'm afraid of the man I'll become if I lay my life down for the people I don't even care for"

Pockets of Reach unglassed

Reach was not glassed like other planets, it was in a crisscross pattern. The covenant would never completely waste valuable forerunner structures and artifacts. Despite the Prophet's corruption, they could not risk the doubtfulness of the other species, a small research team of the Covenant maybe stayed to study. Therefore, I bring on the idea that Reach was not completely glassed.

Terra forming Human Technology

At the beginnings of the colonization of planets by the humans, Terra Forming equipment was researched and developed. Seeing that Reach was an important asset to humanity, this technology must have been kept somewhere in the planet. It could have the potential of slowly restoring glassed areas.

Pockets of Human refugees on Reach

If Reach was not fully glassed, pockets of civilian and military refugees may have in some secure military installations. After successful killing the research teams, Terra Forming might have began.

Lose of Covenant interest in Reach

The chosen covenant Scientists on Reach were probably Elites seeing that they were durable and intelligent unlike the fragile prophet races. The humans were probably able to kill them. The covenant government around that time probably lost interest because of the Great Schism. The Prophets had no caring for any Elite peoples.

WIA and Possible living KIA Spartans

During the Jump from the pelican the spartans were in, harder impacts may have caused KIA listed Spartans bio-monitors fail. Not proving that they are really dead. KIA and MIA spartans may have joined refugee forces. (Highly unlikely, but possible)

Human Re colonization

Perhaps during the rebuilding of the Human Empire Infrastructure, Reach maybe was resurrected.

No, listed KIA spartans may not be dead. Biomonitors could have failed on impact.

Wherever you roam
so far from home
you'll be safe from peril
life threatening and terrible
if you avoid David Powel
and keep track of your towel.

You're cookie sucks!

By the way, you don't have to "bring forth the idea" of Reach not being totally glassed. It's confirmed in First Strike that a large portion of the planet was not burned.

I said this on the OP:

You already gave me a cookie, what greater incentive could you possibly have to give us if we discuss your thread?

If you don't know who I am, the feeling is mutual.

First Strike talks about Reach a lot.

"I'm afraid of the man I'll become if I lay my life down for the people I don't even care for"

My point here is to bring forth the idea of Reach not just being not completely burnt, but the pockets of surviving population contained in it.

If somebody's opinion is being smashed and nobody's helping, I try and help. I use logic and extensive vocabulary (and sometimes self-destructive circular reasoning) to confuse my enemies into submission. Fear me, trolling, fapping creatures of the night. For I. Am your worst nightmare.

Spartans are never listed as KIA. They are listed as MIA because Section 1 beleived it would be a major morale crusher of the civilian polulation. ONI has made the illusion that Spartans never die. If only that were true.
