a lesson of decent
Greetings...I am from the Jórvík province of Ænglaland.

start of Halo 3 theory
Halo 3 starts on November 3rd.

think about it...

the UNSC Dusk takes two weeks to get to Installation 05 when it followed Regret's assault carriers slipspace wake minutes after it jumped

it gets back to Earth in meer minutes after following the slipspace wake of the dreadnaught

now...when comparing the sizes and the stregnth of the slipspace engine......it would have been at least an hour after the dreadnaught left that the Dusk went through

it's also explained on how the Fleet were still destoying themselves

so...as the Dreadnaught got to Earth on November 3rd (explained how the Dusk got to Onyx the same day after getting back to Earth)......

then Halo 3 starts at the same day

then again...I don't have Halo: Uprising....so I don't know if it's all set on one day there or a couple of hours

end of Halo 3 theory
Now... the previous theory proves that Forerunner slipspace technology is instantaneous.

This would mean that the Portal too is instantaneous.

This means that the levels The Ark is set on November 4th... with The Covenant set on the 4th or 5th... but with Halo definitely on the 5th.

This means that the reason why "Eulogy" takes place in March... wouldbe due to...
 * 1) the 2 million or so remaining Marines finish off the Loyalists that remained at Earth
 * 2) The Sangheili destroy any more loyalist ships in the system.
 * 3) if any of the hypothetical loyalist ships are there, they'd bring troops to the ground taking more time.
 * 4) An official Peace Treaty with the UNSC and Covenant (Separatists) would be signed on that last day...where the war would officialy end.
