Data storage unit

"Get the Package to the Autumn!"

- Carter-A259 to SPARTAN-B312

The Package was a code name for a data storage unit used by Dr. Catherine Halsey to store Cortana. During the Fall of Reach, Noble Team's final objective was to get the Package, and the sensitive data it contained, off of the planet and onto the.

The Package appeared to be a large metal cylinder with a hollow section in the center, where a large glowing ball of blue energy was suspended. However, the Package was considerably larger than previous data storage units used to store AIs, such as the Data Crystal Chip. This may be due to it containing other information besides the AI, such as the "latchkey discovery" made by Laszlo Sorvad and the information decrypted from the Babd Catha Forerunner Complex.

Trivia

 * In the level The Pillar of Autumn, SPARTAN-B312 hooks the Package onto the back of his armor, much like an armor ability.
