There Is No Spoon

So here's a thought... The rings have been activated at least once.... Only a human could activate it *MC and Keys*... And the term ark is possibly refering to the last stronghold *if you want to refer to Noah fine* So we may in fact be Forerunner... Even the location of the ark is in africa *the place where life supposedly origonated from when the world was pangea* So if thats the case how did we survive the first blast? Mabey that blast is a sheild generated set to activate if a halo is actived... just a thought....

The Ark is an installation created by the Forerunners, its made to Activate all 7 Halo's at once To destroy all Life up to the length of the MilkyWay. ANYONE that has hands can activate a Halo, all they need to do is just insert the Index into the Control Centre, then it will be activated, however it needs to power-up Fully to have affect as shown at the end of H2. Truth is going to earth, to activated the Ark so the Covenant can start the "Great Journey" however, its all lies.

I think the thread creator means that perhaps when the Ark is used, it activates all the Halo installations while also protecting anyone inside the Ark from harm.

What Color does a smurf turn when you choke it?

Copied from me and some other dude. I posted earlier today that the ark might protect humans. I didnt say shield generator though that makes it sound like star wars

Only human/ reclaimers can activate the Halo's, that is why Tartarus had to force Miranda Keys to activate Delta Halo. This has to do with the humans relation with the forerunners, and that the forerunners are our ancestors, that where wiped out when they were devastated by the flood and forced to activate the Halos.

Halo 3 will reveal how some of the forerunners survived to become the human race, as the Halos will have to fire in Halo 3 to eliminate the already released and powerful flood. This brings up the theory that the Ark protects those who activate it from the Halos blasts, as the Ark is situated in Africa where the oldest remains of humans can be found, and where humans first appeared on the Earth.

Nothing will be left alive when the Ark is activated, its not a facility to protect, but to destroy.

We don't know that yet, and you have no proof to support that theory. The fact that there are remnants of forerunner ancestors suggests that it is more likely a means of conteracting the Halos blasts.

Well at the end of H2 where we learn that the Ark is to destroy all living things and probably leaving 2 people to re-populate the Race. Cheif and cortana? LOL jk.

Well think of the BigBang that destroyed our Solar System, thats what Halo's can do. But a Blast of all Halos(the purpose of the Ark) can cause more damage at a longer range
