New Mombasa Data Center

The Data Center was an immense underground facility under the city of New Mombasa, Kenya, Earth. It consisted of ten sublevels, with the city's Urban Infrastructure AI's, the Superintendent's data core in the tenth level, inside a massive cavern.

The Forerunner Portal structure was also partially located below this facility.

History
The Data Center's construction was administered by Dr. Endesha, the scientist responsible for managing the Superintendent.

Just before Covenant invasion on Earth, an unusual object, later revealed to be the Portal, was detected by a seismic survey performed by the Superintendent.

When the Battle of Mombasa begun, Dr. Endesha was inside the Data Center, observing Huragok who freed one of their own, which eventually made its way into the Superintendent's core and started to repair it, eventually fusing its Vergil subroutine with itself. Dr. Endesha was killed when Commissioner Kinsler activated the facility's fire containment system, flooding the facility with Argon.

Kinsler sent a team of NMPD officers to make sure the Doctor was dead, and then retrieve the Superintendent's data. Eventually, only one officer survived. He was later met by an ODST, the Rookie, who had arrived in the Data Center to find Captain Dare, who was holding in Sublevel 9. The cop was later killed, but the Rookie made his way to Dare's position, and they retrieved the Huragok who had fused its data with the Superintendent. After this, the facility fell under Covenant control.

When the Prophet of Truth arrived at Earth in November, 2552, he traveled to the Data Center's lowest level, where the Covenant forces had excavated a tunnel into the interior of the Portal structure. At this point, the structures inside the facility were still mostly undamaged.
