And the scarab gun is Covenant tech, right? So why would Earth have one?
Im not up to speed with all the other theories that have been posted and Ive only read the first book so dont scream at me if I get something wrong.

Where do you think the covenant got most of their tech? hmm?

we have to realize that the blast from the ark isnt destruction, the ark is a key to remain a life, if anything blasts from the ark than it is only information to the halo rings

I agree, if the ark is supposed to save life, then why do people think that the ark will " blow up the world"

If that is so, and the ring is under the earths crust, humans would have seen it throgh the water of the ocean, submarines would have detected it, Its not a halo just a plate. a very very thick plate... but its not a ring. im going to gues its a upside down pyramid shape.

if earth hides a ring in it wouldn't it have showen a planet insted of a ring when 343 was showing the other halos at halo2's end. also the forunner proibley colinced earth then left the arc because it was out of the worst part of the blast. i think we should just wait for the game to give us some answeres. until then we can only chase whispers of the truth.

I lov it le moy
viva la 420

good theory, that Forerunner structure looks exactly as the "little circles" that delta halo has all over, but i think this thing may be something else maybe some halo/ark, i mean think about this: halo has many religios and scientific related stuff, humans started evolving in africa.(thinking in the theory that human are indeed the forerunners) so maybe the Forerunners that survive the activation of the halos started they new civilization rigth on africa, then they moved the northern continents(the first civilizations where found in mesopotamia) and started moving more to the point of reching america.
and the explanation to why the migthy Forerunners on earth did not used their technology may be because they just wanted to forget all about the flood and all the ones that died whit the activation of the halos and/or did not hava nothing to work with, just the ark and the suposed halo and nobody wants to mess with the weapon that will make the flood harmless in case of another outbrake and the only refuge to another halo activation

but this is only what i think

No, it still would have shown the Halo. Earth would not be the Halo, the Halo inside earth would be the Halo. :P

And to think the ONI base in Australia wouldnt have dug into its hull...

  • 05.14.2006 6:18 PM PDT

My god.... where else would Halo rings be? Do you think that the ones floating around were new ones? Ones that were made, but never teleported before the outbreak? Goodness... so much sense. I thought that was the ark, but it makes so much sense... In the bible, the Ark was where they remained for as long as it took for the flood to end... and I suppose it remains to be the case. Crafty, crafty Bungie storyboard...

This makes sense. The last activation could be the reason there was a wipe-out of animals... although I'm not sure specifically, I do believe there was one around that time. Three or four since the beginning of the Earth, but the most recent one was then. Chances are that I'm wrong, but I think that may be a reasonable explanation.

But seeing that picture of the concept of the Ark, one must wonder if we're overthinking this?

The Halo could simply not be where Australia is... it's a ring, not a whole sphere.

Logic tells me that it would have to align with the equator in order to maintain a realistic gravitational effect as the Halo's don't have the mass of the Earth therefore neither the gravity. If it were aligned from pole to pole the spinning effect would spin like a flicked coin tossing it's habitat and contents around violently rather than a wheel which would fix its habitat and contents firmly against its inner circumference surface.

10,000kms from inner rim to inner rim + 22.3x2 for the Halo's structural thickness = 10,044.6kms. Still fits inside Earths diameter
yeah but it wouldn't be that close to the surface. (i didn't mean to be so judgemental in my previous post sorry.)


Maybe not all the Halos are the exact same size... ever think of that? :D


true true, in Halo 2 when it shows all the 7 halos they can "fit" inside of each other....they then disperse to show all 7

Umm no. The thing openning is the Ark of the Covenant, and the Earth, as a whole is the Ark (Noah's Ark)

Sorry to burst your bubble, but those things are only for waste/repositions/anything else that the ring needs to do to stay in orbit..They're not mini Arks.

Looks like you've done a lot of research, For this I commend you.

This could all be true, but if there is all of this stuff under the earth's crust, how have humans not found it yet?

(apoligize if this has already been answered, only read first part of your post)

I'm reading the first one, and I already know it's fake. Covenant ships have their control rooms/bridges in the center of their ships so it's harder for them to be taken out.

I haven't read the second one yet.

Even though these two are fake, you can still be blacklisted for spreadingrumors/leaked information.

meh. i have a feeling that the MC and some other characters are gonna find a ring of 'undiscovered' metal under the Earth's equator, and later find out from spectroscopic analysis that it is the same material as the Halos are made of.

Actually it looks and sounds like a very large scarab primary gun. Also it never seems to amaze me how in october 2004 joseph staten the head of cinimatics stated the forerunners don't remain in our galaxy any longer and eyt people still say humans are the forerunners. You ARE NOT A FANboi. Every person that has ever been in the forums have said or thought atleast once we are the forerunners which is enough proof to me we not. Then we have a bungie staff member say this.

The point is it's a large scarab gun . Notice the things around the side and the hole in the middle resemble a large scarab gun and it has the same sound but louder then a scarab gun. It doesn't look like a halo at all halos have no middle. Ask any of the "elders" of plot theorization many months ago came to the conclusion that the scarab gun was a mining tool. Which makes sense based on what an actual scarab it. It's firing at the moon and it is going to uncover a ship. THAT ship is the ark . You seem to forget about noahs ark and in there the ark being a ship. Also halos are disks that fly over the head of angels and the halos from halo float over planets not inside planets.

P.S some people have a hard time using logic to make comparisions the thing showed us what halo we were on and in halo 2 were on the second smallest halo. The first smallest is maybe 3/4 of the one were on. That was 3 miles wide and in no way resembled a halo.


You're logic is somewhat flawed as well. Just because the forerunners are no longer here doesn't mean that humans aren't their decedents or their creation.

It's a lot like saying the Mayans, Incas, or the Aztecs are no longer here in the sense that their societies are no longer here. Yet, even though their civilizations were destroyed, they still had survivers who have had decedents that live to this day. The term forerunners could simply be a term to describe the society and the flood could have simply destroyed their society. Some forerunners could have survived to try to rebuild and simply died off as life came back or they could have simply left.

You don't get it do you? We aren't say that little ring that fired a blast is a Halo, we are saying that Halo is buried deep in the crust and that little artifact that fired was just one of the little corresponding domes in the exterior of Delta Halo. Sheesh.

Why don't you read the whole post before jumping to a conclusion? The biggest plot point in Halo 3 isn't going to turn out to be a giant Scarab Gun. The Scarab Gun is just a little easter egg in the third level.

I agree with the Empire dude, it's a real spot on post and the best theory I've ever heard about anything in my life. Don't be put down by all those naysaying A$$ holes on this forum, you're on to something.
