Subject: Where is "Tempest" located?

Just wondering. Theres no Halo ring going around in the sky. Maybe its on the ark.

I tried the Reach forum but it got tossed off the first page in about 5 minutes with no answer.

Video.

If it were the Ark, you'd be able to see Ark bits in the background.

Onyx?
Legendary Planet?
Wherever the heck Sandtrap/box and Snowbound are?

I don't care. I really don't.

If you look at the Synth panorama in one of the BWUs you can see it is on a Halo Installation. Installation 04 or 05 I think because of the Earth-like climate.

I imagine it is on a far and distant side of maybe 04/05 because, stuff happened there..

Don't worry, you're still your mom's favorite Bnet member.

I have been dying to figure this out. I'm going to say it takes place on the same place as Snowbound and Sandbox, two places that we have no idea where they are.

This is theory: Snadbox is around the Hunter homeworld of Te (gas giant in the sky) and Snowbound is thought to be on one of Sanghelios' (ELite homeworld) moons. But, yeah, I want to know where they really are if these aren't true.

Actually, the more I look at Tempest, the more I think it resembles a Shield World.

Looks almost like a Forerunner Homeworld considering all the Forerunner skyscrapers in the background.

Go to the synth of Tempest and you can spot the Halo extending into the horizon.

Yeah Tempest is definitely on one of the Halo Installations. No telling which one, but it does seem to have a similar environment as 04 and 05.

Tempest...
It's in a hurricane!

Dark Neptune, a young amateur astronomer whose gaming life is no different from other teenagers of his age, though he controls it more strictly then others.

Most likely the same area Forge World is in.

Signatures are for squares.

Yeah, it's on a Halo.

I'm guessing Installation 04.

Use the link I provided above and look at the synth. You'll find it to the right (or really far left) of the giant structures.

Click this link look around and you can see one of the Arks massive arms in the background so its on the Ark.

If it was on the Ark, the structure would be thicker, there'd be multiples, it wouldn't extend as far up and you could look around and see multiple arms. Also, if it were on the Ark, then Tempest would be in the middle, except the Ark has a moon there. Pay attention.

Tempest is located on a halo ring. On of the Bungie designers confirme this in the new video on Waypoint.
