Reach is a fictional planet appearing in the Halo video game series developed by Bungie and published by Microsoft.

Introduction

Planet Reach is an Earth-like human colony located in the Epsilon Eridani IV system, only 10.5 light years away from the Sol system, this is why it is called the "gateway to Earth". In terms of volume, Reach is the fourth largest planet, it is also the second closest to the four planets of Epsilon Eridani.

Reach was once a pioneer colony, and later a vital military colony of the UNSC, a large number of military facilities such as shipyards are located in it. Titanium resources are abundant on Reach, it is also one of the largest producers of titanium. Although Reach gives the impression of being a military planet, in fact, the population of Reach ranks second among human colonies. Part of its inhabitants already live in cities built there, another part defies the harsh environment of the planet, living in fortified settlements.

In the year 2552, Reach was invaded by the Allied Planets, despite the UNSC's efforts to defend the planet for several weeks, Reach had fallen. The fall of Reach was one of the worst defeats for the UNSC in the Human-Allied war. The planet was vitrified, and most of its population was likewise reduced to ashes due to the plasma bombs.
