There's a crystal found in the Human's second most important planet REACH, also the biggest Naval station we have.
It's a crystal found deep under an Operations of Naval Intelligence Base/Coal(?) Mines. The crystal is found by Tartarus at the end of the book titles First Strike and brought to one of the Prophets.
The room is said to be huge - it felt like being out in the open, it may have been 3 miles wide (that's how wide the thing in the trailer is), and in the center there was a pedestal holding the crystal. Also, a covie ship parked right on top and sent his troops in via a hole in the top of the room.
The crystal let the Spartans andJohnson in their captured Dropship escape by temporarily reversing the Antigravlift so it lifted them up rather than sent them down.
This sounds like the best comparison, although I've not read the books.
This thing about about the ring being in earth: my question is, how deep under the Earth's serface? Because it doesn't look extremely deep froom the trailer. Wouldn't the ring be visible under the oceans?
Also, this crystal idea. If the crystal warps time and space, would it be possible that when the crystal is activated it teleports the Arc the Earth? Or from within the Earth e.t.c.? Would that be possible? Is that what the light from the structure is?
Nah the crystal doesn't teleport anything (though things in the rings could), the crystal warps time not controls it...like if they use it in slipspace, you go through it like 90x faster, but it's more dangerous.
Also, the Prophets had it..you were on that Prophets ship (well techinically next to it) when you leave New Mombasa in Halo 2...so this is probably why Halo 2's story line on the other Halo is only a few days long, then you go back to Earth via slipspace and this explains why Admiral Stanforth (?) is so suprised to see you back if you just left in slipspace from on Earth's surface.
Let me point out that Cortana was the one who found out the Covenant ships could enter slipspace from inside a planet's atmosphere, and the Covenant got a hold of this info from the Covenant AI on the Ascendant Justicce (Covie capital ship they steal)...
Things can enter a mass from inside slipspace, but if they enter the mass, they and the mass will blow up, so the theory on the Halo telepoprting inside the Earth is a load of bull -blam!-.
