"It's basically a planet sized shipyard"

- Lieutenant Commander Jason Wolfe

Overview
Discovered in 2552 by UNSC Fenrir, Valhalla is a Forerunner shield world. Similar to the shield world discovered by UNSC Spirit of Fire, the facilities in its core were once used to build Forerunner warships.

Notable Features

 * The entry aperture can fit ships as large as the supercarrier Tigerclaw and the Spirit of Fire.

Ultima Thule
 * The code name for the interior of Valhalla.
 * Contains shipyards for the production of Forerunner warships. Several schematics have been found, ranging in size from destroyers and cruisers, to Keyships and dreadnoughts.
