Why High Charity Can't Go to the Ark

[url=https://docs.google.com/document/d/163ACM83IdR65Sf6-cj6w3fDouCnHesm7eJDZ1cN03Qs/edit?usp=sharing][b][u]Sources:[/u][/b] [u]“Diameter: 72.79 miles (117km)"* -Page 146, Portal at Voi, Halo EVG “Diameter: 216 miles (348km)” -Page 93, High Charity, Halo EVG[/u] [b][u]Math:[/u][/b] Start: 1/X = 117/348 Cross Multiply: 117X = 348 Divide by 117: 117X/117 = 348/117 Simplify and Finish: X = 2.97 [b][u]Conclusion:[/u][/b] Based on the math equation, if we round up, we can say that the portal to the Ark is ⅓ the diameter of High Charity’s diameter. There has yet been an instance in Halo’s canon where a Forerunner slipspace portal has allowed an object larger than it to pass through it. Therefore, we can not make an accurate inference/suggestion/conclusion that objects larger than a Forerunner portal can travel through it. If such a conclusion is made anyway, then an answer needs to exist as to why the Forerunners waste energy on opening portals larger than the object that is passing through it. (See: Halo 4) This irrefutably means that it is implausible for High Charity to have used the portal at Voi to travel to the Ark. ---------------------------------------------------------------- [i]*The Halo EVG page titled “Portal at Voi” states it is referring directly to the slipspace portal, and not the machine generating it. “COMPOSISTION: Slipspace field generated by a massive gateway machine” -Page 146, Portal at Voi, Halo EVG[/i][/url]

  • Has anyone put out the idea that Gravemind didn't take High Charity out of slipspace to go into the portal, but just went to where the portal's "stream" in slipspace was and went immediately to the Ark because invading Earth would be pointless if the Halo's were activated?
