um i have read it and its still more like a zoo...if a species is endangered, a zoo is gonna make sure they don't let any specimens out (contain them) otherwise they would lose their only means of study and breeding....its not a prison because if they thought the flood were such a serious danger then would destroy them

Remember the words of 343 "they put the flood on halo to keep them alive i am not sure anymore if that was such a good idea" and Where did you read that?

EXACTLY 85,786,423,394,030,936,000,000,000 Halos.


This is the volume of the universe (2.1446605848507734e+30 or 4/3(pi)(8 Billion LY, r of universe)^2) divided by the effective range of a Halo, 25,000 light years.

you woulnd't need that many...just enough to make sure that the flood would die before they could drift to some other galexy

In order to prevent the spread of the flood during a complete infection, you would need to wipe out all the sentient life in the UNIVERSE.

If it was only the galaxy, then:

20,943,951,023.933336 Halos in the Milky Way.

Yes but if the forerunners arent almighty they probably would kill themselves

its that or let the flood wipe them out....only...guilty spark is supposed to watch over the halo facility...so maybe the forerunner evacuated and left the whole food infested galexy and left monitors to make sure nothing went seriously wrong happend while the halos destroyed all sentient life...maybe the forerunner are stil alive....

But if you remember The Forerunner are insane because they kept a species alive that fed on any sentient beings and learns from them

maybe they were just studying them to find a way to destroy them without wiping out all sentient life in the galexy?...or studying them so they wouldn't have to destroy them...but instead just find a cure

To the best of my knowledge it was measured using the wavelength and frequency of energy from the electro-magnetic spectrum from the "darker" or "inactive" (and therefore older because light is just reaching us from the newly expanded parts of the universe) parts of the universe.

Kind of like, if you look at the stars you are looking back in time due to the time it takes light to travel across space.

in the latest XBN (page 14) this guy did sent them a letter that said mathematically considering the width of the galaxy and range of the halos there would have to be 9 halos.
