: What's occuring here is working on multiple levels. ONI intercepted a lead
: about Axl and Sedra and dispatched a team. Sedra's Colonial Guard is
: looked at as weak and their border controls are practically non-existant.
: ONI's team discovers a Zealot is involved in a plot involving the
: smuggling operation. They assume that there will be a bombing similar to
: when Gek tried to set off the Havok in Rio, but don't understand the
: intent. The device goes off and it doesn't do what they expect. It appears

I don't see how a soldier in a universe where the primary form of stasis is by refrigerating the subject can believe that stasis refrigerant is used in bombs, especially since most military personnel in the Halo universe seem to be quite familiar with cryo (and how bombs work, for that matter - please point me at a conventional or nuclear weapon that would for any reason have a cryogenic stasis component).
I also question the part where it's not the kind of bomb they thought it was; if it's an entirely new weapon, why did it need the stasis refrigerant in the first place?
