Based on campaigns.

Question I cant find the answer to anywhere.

After all the ships went through the portal to the Ark, did the portal remain open, or did it close soon after?

We are all going to get banned aren't we?

What do you mean by "ships"? Because the rebels seem to have gotten there by slipspace travel which is impossible.

Basically all the ships that entered the portal during Halo 3.

It remained open until Forward Unto Dawn ( I think that's its name?) tried to go back through it. Closing half way through sending Chief (and the back half of the ship) into the unknown.

It stayed open, thats how the dawn got back. During the ceremony it wasn't on so they most likely found a way to turn it off.

The portal collapsed, the destruction of the Ark/Installation 04B destroyed the portal 'destination'. That's why the thing closed on the Dawn after the explosion. It could be said that Master Chief was responsible for the closure since he activated Installation 04B. The front half of the ship landed on Earth while the back half stayed close to the where the Ark was and drifted into space.
