Last week we announced a brand new Digital-First Short Novel from our partners at Simon & Schuster and Pocket Star Books called [https://www.halowaypoint.com/en-us/community/blog-posts/halo-new-blood-announced Halo: New Blood]. In case you missed it, [[Canon Fodder - Bam, said the lady|check out our chat with author Matt Forbeck]] to get a sneak peek at what to expect from the new story! Today, we wanted to tackle something that has an incredible importance in the overall scope of the Halo narrative: The firing of the Halo Array. This actually arose from a question that popped up on the [https://www.halowaypoint.com/en-us/forums/db05ce78845f4120b062c50816008e5d/topics Universe forums] regarding the birth year of the Ur-Didact, Shadow-of-Sundered-Star, which is listed as 110255 BCE in his [https://www.halowaypoint.com/en-us/universe/characters/didact Universe profile]. The question was whether or not the date could be accurate given its relationship to other events in the Halo timeline. In order to more completely understand the relationship between certain events and when they occur, it helps to identify certain benchmarks that can be used to extrapolate other information.

The firing of the [https://www.halowaypoint.com/en-us/universe/tech/halo-array Halo Array] is not only one of the most pivotal moments in the Halo storyline because of what it meant for the galaxy, but it’s also a crucial point in time that other events have been measured against. As with many events in the “real” world that happened long ago, we typically resort to rounded approximations of timeframes. We might say that automobiles have been around for “about a hundred years,” but in reality that number isn’t exact. With the firing of the Halo Array, the most commonly-used term is “100,000 years ago” and in some cases, that has been canonized to “100,000 BCE.” Clearly, those two numbers cannot be literally true because 100,000 years ago is different, depending on if we’re talking about dates like 1 CE or 2552 CE, for example. If one digs deep enough however, we do have the information to have a much more precise date.

Some of our more meticulous fans have quite likely gone through the information available and arrived at this conclusion themselves, but some of those may not have readily assumed that this date was counting back from the actual date it appeared: June 11, 2007. Now, keep in mind that there are other factors used to determine this number, but we thought it would be a cool piece of information to make more widely known to fans of Halo fiction. The real fun begins when you begin connecting the dots to other events throughout the Halo timeline. In fact, behind the scenes we have a very detailed timeline of many of the events throughout the Halo experience, and specifically those relating to the Forerunner empire. While many of these dates can be inferred with a fair amount of accuracy given information already available, there are others that remain hidden until the right time arises…
