After watching the trailer a couple of time and analysing(looking at the for more the 10 sec) stills. This is my idea of the location of the Forerunner artifact, the Ark.
MC comes walking with Kilimanjaro in the background and the faces the Ark. Behind the Ark you can make out the silouetts of a large city, the ruins of New Mombasa.

That's pretty cool. Is the Forerunner Artifact to scale? (of what you thinks it's size is anyway...)

look around in the other threads a few pages back. there's a good link to a page with a picture of the trailer and the picture from google earth. they're similar enough that i wouldn't be surprised to find out that bungie put LONG hours into researching the area's actual terrain. it's pretty cool

I am...whimsical today.

Now what possible effects could a Ship entering Slipspace INSIDE the atmosphere do to the terrain below it?
(Think the end of the last mission on Earth)
