Patrick, im right w/ you. With out reading ur post b4 hand, i had posted in some other discussion that i thought that the large structure on the earth was actually another halo. The large flanges or wings out to the sides are actually docking clamps. I came to this conclusion after seeing the still shot of the structure from the trialer... and i read some where on this site that the bungie staff said that halo fans may recognize it [the structure]. Granted, it may be a key room. But, since when did a key room open up like that? All the key room was is a place to store an item. Like the library in so many words. I believe what we see in the trailer is the last Halo ring being launched. Makes sense that Bungie would throw a Ring into the game at some point lol. Having said that... why was this ring still docked to a planet? Well, the halo rings needed to be built some where... it was probably not fully finished. Which, assuming this is true... might give an alternate theory to why not all life was destroyed during the first fireing of the Halo weapon system... that the local halo ring was out of commision, and did not fire... saving earth.
