ya ur right it lies under Earth's crust! I think when it is activated it rises up off the surface and is visible from space!

Subject: More Evidence The Earth Hides a Halo Under its Crust

The life and world you see is just a cheery toped and sugar coated version. You know nothing of Hell. Unknown to you and everyone around you is that there is a war going on that you can't see. Now that you know, you are part of it. And if you are going to survive, your going to need to learn to pull the trigger.

That instalation is defeinately the ark, not a halo. I own the limited edition Halo 2, which comes with a dvd. One of the videos in it is The making of Halo 2 or something like that, and under that is level design. During the video it shows a white board and a level drawn up on it called "09-earth-ark" and a small picture next to it which is identical to the installation. Putting the 2 together, i assume that it is the ark. Whether or not there is a halo under the earth, its complete speculation.


who says the Arc can't be a Halo?

and for those who don't know, this is what the original post is talking about...

I think this is right too. I read the fake Halo 3 script. But everything in that script seems to make sense and fit in perfectly even though Bungie said it was fake. I even mentioned the Halo being underneath Earth

Nay. Think how outrageous this is. Why put it under the earth's crust when you can just have it float right outside of it? Why weren't the other Halos underground? How come there aren't any magnetic disturbances in that area? Think of it this way. You have a good theory, but it's like trying to prove the theory of relativity wrong. You might be able to do it, but the evidence against your theory outweighs it. I'm sorry, but this is just too far fetched. "Teleport the exact same area out at the same time" where did it go? Don't say the asteroid belt, that's too big. There's just too much extreme things going on in there. It's like trying to prove that the Arbitor is a female.

What if humanity is not forerunner but evolved flood that are the result of the first firing of halo

I believe that the forerunner relied on the flood to enable their advanced evolution process. which in turn gave them lifetimes far longer than we could comprehend in order to give them the opportunity and duration to reach a level of understanding and enlightenment that makes them capable of building things such as the Halo. A bit like how some who work modern medical science believe that by controling the advancement of certain forms of cancer by altering them genetically and incorporating them back into the body we could eventually create a kind of immortality. However I believe this was extremely dangerous science and this is why we see the construcion of the seven rings, as a measure should anything ever go wrong. a bit like the theory of self directed evolution.

i so totally agree man, and i truly hope there is a ring in the earth, cos that'd mean that we're related to the covenant or sumthin and that would make an awesome storyline, nice evidence!!!!

that would be really cool, and i think that if we were the entire game would be turned upside down, and add all new stuff for master chief to do...

does any1 reckon he goes back to get cortana????

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?

Alrite, im sorry to spoil this- but you are all wrong about the Halo

Here is the evidence

As you can see from the movie, there is no way that that hole is 1,000 k deep, I severly doubt its even 1 k Deep. The other argument is that it is of center, however something that heavy, creating its own magnetic poles etc would through the earth into a very elliptical orbit, which its not.

It seems completely unlikely..sorry to say this, again, like most reasonable people believe, your theory sucks.

So, you think that the two big holes are ONLY located right there, next to eachother and not anywhere else on the ring? Howbout the smaller ones that are an exact duplicate of the bigger ones?

Those holes are for anything the ring needs, aka repositioning thrusters, waste disposal places, places to exit from the inside of AotCR. The rings have lots of hollow portions, and you can exit from the Land side, so logically there would be an exit on the space sides as well.

Is it possible the Halo wasnt hid under the earth's surface but the earth formed over it? Think of it... What if the structure was built before earth even existed... Then when the planets around the sun formed all the matter that earth is made of was formed around the structure due to its already gravitational force? Would make sense to me :)

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!-.

Maybe the ark is a halo that is used incase the others are taken over so they can still activate them?

ah, your not lisening- all credit to who ever thought up this theory, but it simply isnt possible. And think of it, you saw the other Halo's on the holographic display at the end of H2, none of them was a planet. I think everyone is just reading a little to much into the 2:17 video, suddenly a little glint of the armour represent another 3 spartans, or the rifle is back, so the overpowered pistol must be as well etc etc etc, its getting a little tedious of logging on to see 3,000 posts intitled "HALO 3 IVE WORKED OUT THE STORY, OMFG A BRAND NEW CORRECT THEORY", when its actually a load of bollocks based on a huge amount of assumptions

I don't think it's really necessary to have a Halo ringworld inside there for it to function as a Forerunner installation. It could have all the functionality of Halo without being a big artificial ring in space. They could just have the same equipment sitting under the surface of the Earth, instead of on a Halo. Which kind of makes me wonder why they didn't just put the galacic weapons on a bunch of planets throughout the solar system.

If you look for the town of Voi on google maps or google earth, to the west of the town there is a ridge, is it possible this is the cliff the mc stood on in the trailer.

So it would make sense that they would build a sphere to transimit in all directions and to protect them when the blasts went off. Which proves it to me that the earth = ark if your post and my theroy is correct.
