Now in all the games so far released, it seems that Halo seems to be an energy type weapon or maybe a particle weapon.

Maybe the Halo's use a massive fission reactor(even though it seems a bit low tech for the forerunners) in which the index is acutally a rod of uranium. It has a green color and maybe the device around the index is some super condensed material to shield the person from the possible radiation.

However for halo, its mass is compressed a hundred fold and when its inserted into, well Halo, that compressed uranium is then released and it all is spilt at once, and the energy built up gets shot through the buildings on Halo surface such as a laser. Now have you guys ever heard of using magnetic fields to supress particles such as in fusion reactors, such as the prototype tokamak in wich its magnetic field forces the particles to move along its field. Now what if Halo generated it own magnetic field it has its own atmosphere, its large enough, the forerunners most likely designed the Halo's to have one so it could sustain life and an atmosphere. What if halo did this on a much bigger and a bit different scale using Halo to help supress the energy, since its being shot into the center of Halo maybe then as that magnetic field would supress and control the movement of the particles, compressing the massive energy as its being shot up to the center of the Halo, then when its finally compressed to a point where it couldn't be compressed any further, it just explodes and the massive radiation would wipe out living beings, now radiation wouldn't affect the flood since they have a different genetic make-up. They're basicly like zombies in which they don't need living organs to surivive as long as they can move and act, hence why they don't need food, all they want to do is spread and replicate. Now for sentient life, we need our organs to live, and radiation would cause us to have cell mutations and basicly to be wiped out.

Heres where my second part of my theory comes in. Our planet the Earth has a magnetic field, and this magnetic field filters out the most of the most harmful and most powerful of the sun's rays/radiation. Without our magnetic field there couldn't be any life on Earth. Now this is why Mar's is like how it is, Mar's core has completely solidified, and lost its magnetic field due to this, allowing the full force of the Sun's radiation to hit Mar's destorying the atmosphere and making it a barren land. What if the structure in the Halo 3 trailer was basicly the same as what I described above except that it harnessed the Earth's core for energy and used the heat and pressure and channled it through the structure, and did the opposite. Instead it would use the massive energy and explode it, strengthing the Earth's magnetic Field and basicly form a barrier of super condensed energy blocking all radiation.

And now my third part of my theory, now some radiation would of have given off if the Ark was activated the first time, hence why it's in Africa, if it was activated and some radiation was given off, then it would turn life in the surrounding area and the environment to a barren land such as Africa, this would also explain explain why Africa has such a barren natural environment in places surrounding the Ark that go for miles, compared to Asia, Europe, South and North Amercia, keep in mind radiation lasts thousands of years, and as you can in the last few hundred years such as today and in the future, the natural enivornment is slowly coming back with trees and bushes.

--------------------------------------------------------------

Now what else could destory life without harming other objects such as stars, planets, etc. etc., the answer is radiation.

Now have you ever wondered why there need to be an index instead of the forerunners just contructing Halo to just active a huge burst of radiation on command. Well maybe it's a rod of a massive amount of mass of uranium, hence the green color and hence why theres a covering around it for protection for the person holding it. Then when it gets inserted into Halo it starts a massive chain reaction of fission. This explains why there needs to be an index as well.

Now your thinking why the forerunners just didn't construct Halo liek I said, well if you think about it, the forerunners didn't have the time to construct something of that scale, so they went for something they could build fast and easy, a massive fission reactor.

Also the strutures possibly look like it was meant for monitoring, controlling, and creating fission.

Good theory but africa in halo is barren and the annoucment FAQ tells you that most of human life and land is destroyed.

That doesn't make since, Africa in Halo is barren, and I know that about most of the land and human life is destoryed. But I'm talking about the natural enivornment of Africa caused by the previous activation of the Ark.

africas not a particularly barren continent sure theres a few deserts but there are also rain forests and savana grasslands also all planets will have a magnetic field just different strengths. with planets like reach and coral that are earth like it stands to reason that theyd have a similar magnetic field (if you want your theory to stand up), so life on these planets would also survive. this would make the halos inaffective as there would be so many safe havens around the galaxy

Halo's obviously not natural and from the looks of it, has no core. therefore it can't create it's own natural electromagnetic field. And it's gravity is probably not strong enough to hold it's own atmosphere alone.

If all the radio active stuff fuses when the halo's are activated then the rings would become useless after one use

striker stop spouting carp. you do ont need a center to have a magnetic field, a coil of wire has one, and it has no center, otherwise transformers would not work.

Also the gravity on halo is created by the fac that it is a ring, if it rotates it creates a force to keep you on its inner surface, like the forces on a rollercoaster that push you to the outside of a bend (i know its not actually a force, but rather a lack of centripetal force).

So if your gonna slate the guy atleast get your facts straight.

on the theory im not at all convinced, it just doesnt seem neat enough, too many implausables.

you really know nothing about uranium fission do you?
how is fission 'a bit low tech' ?

your new idea is wrong in so many ways it's pretty obvious why no one has said it before.

and please don't spout like
"Now have you guys ever heard of using magnetic fields to turn back particles on itself such as in fusion ractors."
as if you did.
and i'd like to see where you got this idea about using magnetic fields to turn back particles on themselves.

nahhh, its a nice theory and all, but do you really think they'll try to explain it that way?

nahhh.

It will either be explained as somethin really simple which doesnt really make much sense, such as them emitting a certain type of frequency which just makes people heads explode or something.

Or they jsut won't explain how it works, which i see as the best choice.

Ok, thanks for the input, now i'm gonna update it with new information and so on to make it better. O ya I was talking about the tokamak fusion reactor prototype.

Also when I meant that nuclear fission being low tech for the forerunners is because they're possibly thousands of years ahead of our technology. If they are then they woud have probably found a much much better power source, even today we are reseaching nuclear fusion and hypdogen power which outclasses fission since they have 0 pollution and are more pratical for a common energy source.

I am...whimsical today.

Has Mars's core solidified? Wow thats cool :)
Your theory sounds plausible, to me at least :P But I can't help feeling that the Forerunners would use something more high-tech than that. I think its something that we could not comprehend (and so therefore Bungie does not have to explain it :P)

LOL, Guscon, you may be right, but its good enough, and easy to build for them and pretty easy for us to build, I mean as long as it gets the job done, I mean it would take much much longer for them to build something high tech, however they didn't have the time to do that so they build something lower tech and easy and fast to build.

Ummmmm that doesn't mean anything to let you know.

Anyways more freedback would be welcomed, more feedback equals the better the theory. :)
