this is just a thought, and only i thought i came up with.. but could this relic under africa be the same sort of thing that was found under menachite mountain in the book, halo : first strike? Then it looks like the convenant would find whatever is inside, and use it to their advantage, i.e., the end of the world? as was stated by cortana when the crystal was found in the room under menachite mountain.


just a thought..

The time disruption crystal?


Gravity Disrupting Crystal. The apprent Time Bending Capabilities are strictly a by-product of the effect on Gravitiy.

that 15 mile structure opens up to reveal..........a 6 inch crystal?

LoL, but really, how big are these crystals? cuz that "artifact" is too huge to house one little piece of forerunner tech?

you really didnt read the books.. did you?

but yes, the scale is right, and your '6 inch crystal' is also right.

Thank you Bill Nye...



Whoa, flashback. That was nice. Bill Nye was awesome...Actually, it was either that or Gilligans Island, [DISCLAIMER: For those offended by issues of sex, do not read] and unless Ginger was getting plowed I didn't care.[/DISCLAIMER]

In reality, though, not much was on at that time.....Ghost Writer sometimes...Or the Super Mario Brothers Show.

The trailer strikes me as it was releasing a lot of energy when the Arc started doing whatever it was doing, but hey, it could've been just a light show, I do not know.

HOw about Darkwing Duck or any of the disney cartoons...and to just keep on thread...the crystal altered gravity as we have mentioned ^ but not much was known about it because it was blown to bits before it could be researched. It did have some interesting affects on Slipspace though



You're right, Darkwing Duck, Duck Tails....Good times....Damn, new-aged kids, with their talking cars....and there tiny robots.....and their.....Their Baby Einstiens....In my day, we didn't have Einstien...We had Sessame Street......Tought you how to count...Had everything...a Pimp, a Crack Fiend, a Bum, and giant Yellow Bird from the hood....


On Topic:

The effects within slip-space seem to be where the 'time bending' factors come into play. The gravity seems to happen in normal space.

the time bending wasnt from the crystal at all... it was fate, if you will.. they had to be there to intercept the crystal..

And what the -blam!- did they do to the Transformers?....Why in the blue hell is Optimus a fire truck...whats wrong with a regular truck?...too blue collar?...And someone bring tell kids that Power Rangers is not just played out now..it was played waaaaay b4...Voltron -blam!-es...anyway on topic there seem to be alot of time descipancies in the story...like if the Flood have been starved for 100,000 yrs while being marooned on Halo why are there any still alive. And you can throw in the bulk of 343's comment s to the Chief. Could the crystal somehow come into play here?...and i always thought the artifact in the trailer was an engine...a giant slipspace engine


LoL !

slipspace engine
time crystal holder
another halo
an underground city
a giant covenant barbeque

-these are just a few of the "suggestions" of what the artifact is.........LoL, i just find it easy to think its the ark!

aand im back..

but what excactly is the ark?

[Edited on 6/29/2006]

  • 06.29.2006 11:21 AM PDT

Quick as a razor, sharp as a bullet.

the ark is a place form where all the halos can be remotley activated (confirmed) and a place that is safe from the flood (unconfirmed)
