If I remember correctly, they think it had something to do with that crystal, which warped time and space?

yeah i know that i was just wondering about when it warps them back... Like is Master Cheif warped back at the same time he's on the PofA? Two of them? To further confuse me i think some halopedia thing mentioned the crystal altered the events around REACH not neccessarily elsewhere, so confusing!

Yes. The crystal was believed to be Precursor technology as it seemed far too advanced for the Forerunners.

From memory, i believe that the events of Halo: Combat evolved took a week? Or was it a month? I can't remember.
While the events in the caves underground with Dr Haley and Blue team took a day or so. Correct me if i am wrong.

The crystal seemed to warp time around the Chief or Halsey (Either one) and speed up these events(Or slowed them down). Thus, he left Reach, beat the flood and returned in a day or so.

EDIT/Spoilers: Which is why you find later on that they traveled a great distance over the galaxy in a matter of minutes.
