: They're going to go in and destroy the deposits. Which won't actually destroy
: an element , so they're obviously hoping to bury the mining site under a
: landslide or something. Except it's on a section of a broken Halo, so it
: ain't going to be buried forever.

: But in the video description, the 'element' is billed as part of a biological
: attack.

: Lovely. And here I was hoping that Nightfall's science would be marginally
: better than the average Star Trek episode, but that was just too much to
: ask for.

: *sigh*
: I guess, if it is an element, you could destroy most of the stockpile with
: some sort of neutron bomb. And how it's exclusively lethal to humans? I
: don't know. I'm mostly disappointed that they teased the TV series with
: such a blatant plot device.

Hey, this is ONI were talking about...the element thing could be a cover up....or just a blatant plot device.
