Noa ( Angelica Frost )

Noa was a UNSC Outer Colony and part of the Nora System. It is also an outer colony that founded extreme numbers of Forerunner technology just close on the moon itself. The Planet itself is rich of oil depository and contains a forerunner relic beneath the planet. In 2537, Spire Industries built its excavation site and it's research facility nearby. For the UNSC, the planet itself is also a perfect place for people who want to live in the heat. It won't be a vacation colony for those of the rich colonists, but this planet is also given to be economic. But in 2551, the colony was attacked by the covenant as most of the Wolf Six Spartans were deployed to assist UNSC Forces, but their missions was changed and currently under ONI's orders. The Colony was glassed after the UNSC Resistance was no longer in the colony and presumably crushed by the covenant. The Colony was terraformed and recolonized in the late 2580s.
