Just like the number of licks it takes to get to the center of a Tootsie Pop, the world may never know...except Bungie.

In CE the covenant are looking for something. So johnson tries to beat them to it not knowing what they are looking for. I can't remember what they thought it was. We see this when MC finds jenkins' helmet.
It turns out the covenant accidently released the flood from the research facility that the forerunners created to study the flood. Then johnson etc were attacked by the flood and then MC.
The monitor says something on the library level about he is glad that some species survived to procreate.
In halo 2 I think a similar sort of thing happens but it is done on purpose because of the cival war???
In halo 3 the Truth ad reconciliation ship from the first halo is taken to earth by the flood causing the flood to arrive on earth!
Thats how I understand it anyway, not read the books don't really care, just like the games!!
In CE the Covenant initially release them but push the Flood back into containment. Keyes and his Marines made their way to what they thought was an arms cache only for it to be the Flood containment and research center unintentionally releasing the Flood for a second time. The Truth and Reconciliation was destroyed by ODST lieutenant McKay over Installation-04. That means it's not the ship we see entering Earth's atmosphere during the level Flood Gate. Instead, its a ship that once belonged to fleet stationed around High Charity. As for the Halo 2 release, I believe that Flood had been out of containment since the firing of the Halo array. It helps to read the books.
