Overview

Deployed in 2520 using state of the art sensors and satellites the ARGUS array monitors and detects Near Earth Objects (neos) larger than that of a small office building and feeds the info to Earth. When one is spotted and calculated to pass through a keyhole in the future, assets on earth are alerted and ships will divert to either deflect or pulverize the threating object.

History

First launched in 2520, the array was consistently upgraded and maintained as optical and laser technology improved through the 2520’s. With the outbreak of war in 2525, the UNSC largely abandoned the array as assets and resources where poured into the increasingly desperate fight against the covenant. When the Covenant entered the solar system in 2552, the array was heavily damaged as the fight between them and the UNSC raged on, destroying or destabilizing the array’s sensitive optical instruments. After the fight concluded and the post-war era age began, the array was largely forgotten as the UEG and UNSC focused on more important matters of rebuilding.
