Greetings.
I have two things I'd like to share with you, two images. Or parts of images anyway.
The first thing is this . It was taken from the Bungie Halo 2 documentary. Obviously it shows an orbital bomardment, but see that purple thing in the center? It looks much like Covenant metal. And those ruins doesent look human. And I think you can see a planetary ring in the distance.
The other thing is an extract from a H2 screenshot, namely this one .
See that thing hovering in the air on top of the screen? This is an isolated version. I think that's a human starship, but it could be anything.
I'm not going to offer any advanced speculations, just wanted to put these "findings" on display.

I can't see much, I'll turn off my lights and try again.

That could be a covenant ship/building thats part of the single player. But, thats just a guess, what i know is that the skech is concept art.

The concept art has never occured to me as being of Earth, since the shape of the structures in no way look 'human'.

The screenshot has a bit of an interesting twist, yes. Though I guess it's too early to interpret what that thing is. To me it looks like part of an overhead structure... Possibly human because of the color scheme, as Johmpa pointed out, but it could also be forerunner.

I just looked at the higher quality-version of the screen at bungie.net. It is definatly floating in mid-air, and I can't see anything connecting it to the mountain on the screen. I'm convinced it's a ship.

I dont think the human ships can enter the atmosphere they dont have anti grav technology so if that is a ship it has to be covie or another alien race, perhaps a mission like the truth and reconciliation

It is not a ship of any kind. It is a Forerunner structure. Just because you can't see where it's touching the ground, doesn't mean it isn't touching the ground. To me, it looks like a bridge.
