The Destruction of the UNSC Pillar of Autumn
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 31 мар 2021
- On September 19th 2552, a UNSC Light Cruiser would jump away from the overrun planet of Reach in a blind and random jump. Where she came out would change the fate of humanity and the war raging in our galaxy forever. The lose of the ship was but a necessity to preserve life as we knew it. Also Happy April Fools, shipmates!

Uuuuhhhhhhh !!!!! , I had no idea what UNSC stood for !? Destroying my brain trying to think what UNSC stood for ?! So I listened and enjoyed the sci-fi story and learned something ! I do love history but every once in a while I could enjoy something like this, not bad !
If you are doing SciFi ship horror you HAVE to do Star Trek's Battle of Wolf 359 where 39 Starfleet ships and 14,000 or so crew got ripped apart by a single Borg Cube commanded by the Assimilated and enslaved mind of their own Captain Jean-Luc Picard. Also see Star Trek First Conract which is worthy Space Horror as Borg Drones infiltrate and slowly assimilate the Enterprise-E and Crew.
I remember my Grandpa telling me about this one when I was a kid, absolutely tragic.
My grandfather Sgt. Trent Litel told me he shook Master Chiefs Hand. Truly admirable
Fun fact it has come to like that they were more than just the two Spartans survived the autumn a few Marines and other personnel survived such abringing the number up to 8 Sergeant Avery Johnson Sergeant Marcus Stacker private Chips Dubbo Lieutenant Elias Halvorson petty Officer second class Sheila Pulaski
@@Nominale_ its master CHEEKS now son. dont get it twisted
I was there. Chief walked past me on the bridge... good times
I was the marine master chief yeeted in the life boat, he saved my life
They did what they had to do, for Earth. An entire Covenant armada obliterated, and the Flood? They had no choice...
They left behind Dustin Echoes!
Yes, that's why they teach this incident in highschool history now.
Very honorable 🎖
Halo... it's finished.
❤
Maritime Horrors doing a Halo video fills me with immense amounts of joy. New Favorite channel doing a video on favorite video game franchise.
Right i saw this and was immediately like must watch 2ouldnt mind a few more of em sprinkled into the great original content
**wipes tear** For a brick, it flew pretty good.
It stabbed pretty well for a brick too!
"Driving down a REALLY COOL 3 kilometer track, in a 1 kilometer ship." HAH!
This episode is great! I look forward to more, whether it's real or another "April Fool's" episode.
This part absolutely broke me 🤣
It would've been interesting if the UNSC had designed their ships to be a bit larger from the beginning, I could actually see there being a lot of surviving Marines/Sailors, if say for example the light and heavy cruiser were like 2-4 kilometers as a standard especially if there gonna operate as capital ships.
14:30 3km track on a 1km ship! I'm dead! 😂
Glad someone caught that.
I was looking for this comment, absolutely floored me when I realized how long it was, haha! Fantastic video
The Autumn wasn't exactly in one piece and there were humans trying to repair it before the flood moved in to repair it. Personally I never gave it much though other than "Wow I'm glad this ship broke up just right to give me a path out of here."
I know, right?! It's hilarious!
“Cortana, all I need to know, is did we lose them?”
"I think we both know the answer to that."
"We made a blind jump how did they--"
"Get here first? The Covenant ships have always been faster. As for tracking us from Reach, at light speed my maneuvering options were limited."
"We were running dark, yes?"
"Until we decellerated. No one could have missed the hole we tore in subspace. They were waiting for us on the far side of the planet."
"Driving a really cool 3km trip inside a 1km ship!"
This still gets me to this day.
As a huge longtime Halo fan, this was a pleasant surprise. WORT WORT WORT
Aaaaaaahhhwubadah!
@@MaritimeHorrors Truly. You are a man of culture and intellect!
@@MaritimeHorrors the question is? Do you know what the ladies like?
@@angelomaset1441 *Charges machine gun.* Oh I know.
@@MaritimeHorrors "This pleases the shared platoon rock*
Legend has it...Chips Dubbo somehow made it off the ring.
And Dustin Echoes
"Driving down a really cool 3 km track on board a 1km ship" 😂
That mission has always bugged, it felt so weird. Nonetheless, such a good game even after all those years.
as a halo lord nerd, i was expecting you to not mention the honeycomb frame, major respect for getting all the details right. love the videos on the great lakes ships too, you’ve earned my sub
AND THE WARTHOG RUN BEING LONGER THAN THE SHIP YOU ARE A LEGEND
Man, this was a surprise, a welcome one too.
Took a chance with this one, glad people like it!
You need to make a version of this video for the UNSC ship
“forward unto dawn”
It’s story is just as impressive and important to humanity surviving as the “Pilar of autumn”
It was split and still managed to keep the master Chief alive for 4 years 7 months and 10 days
Dis 🤌
I was there. Linkin Park was blaring, mountain dew stained everything, Cheeto dust was rubbed in eyesockets, brothers were punched for screen peeking, it was awful.
Why were you screen peaking on Campaign there's no reason for that lol
I've never played Halo but I've been reading science fiction for almost 50 years. I've seen all the major movies, series and fan shows. I'd love to see more like this.
You should read the Halo novels. Honestly really good sci Fi books surprisingly
@@lightdot459 Thanks! I'll take a look at them.
@@cottagebob2551 Same as you I also haven't played Halo (before the free to play Infinitr) but found the sci-fi, especially ships very interesting. I highly recommend the RUclips chanel EkhartsLadder for more sci-fi lore type stuff especially spacecraft/battle analysis
If you have the means, definitely check out the original trilogy (and Halo Reach) as well. Well worth the time if you're a fan of sci-fi. Halo really has become something of a modern classic in the genre.
@@zackakai5173 They are fairly well written! I honestly didn't expect too much when I picked the first one up, but was pleasantly surprised! Good stuff.
Twenty Years tomorrow. Can't believe it.
You have made me feel incredibly old with just one comment lol
Ah yes, a man of plasma posting as well. ❤️
Love the Plasmaposting lads! Been a follower since Plasmaposting 1.0.
@@MaritimeHorrors Indeed! Plasma posting for life! ❤️ Good luck with your channel. I hope you actually can catch the trade winds of RUclips and be able to grow your subscriber fleet. Cheers, mate.

Might be worth looking into the disappearance of the JMC mining vessel Red Dwarf. Losing a ship that big without a trace is quite a mystery, especially with such an advanced AI that should have been able to bring the ship home if anything happened to the crew!
If only they had had a cat on board. That surely would have brought them good luck.
The only way it could have just vanished like that was if, say, the entire crew was killed in a freak accident. But the only way they could all die at once would be a drive plate failure. But maintaining a drive plate is such an easy task that only a complete incompetent with more teeth than brain cells were assigned to it.
But who would be stupid enough to do that? To just let some utter smeghead work on a drive plate unsupervised?
I have to agree - the Red Dwarf just disappeared without a trace, perfect content for this channel
@@christopherwall2121 Who would allow this man, this joke of a man, this man who could not outwit a used tea bag, to be in a position where he might endanger the entire crew? Who? Only a yoghurt.
I'm so high right now. Thought I glitched to a parallel universe for a minute.
3km track in a 1km ship... Truly impressive.
"This is the Pillar of Autumn, we are away. And the Package is with us."
Between you and Garandthumb I’m getting used to Halo themed April Fools episodes.
I clicked on this video thinking “that’s a weird looking boat”
UNSC Pillar of Autumn: "This is what I call a Pro move."
HMS Campbeltown: "Aye, that's a hat trick I fancy. Proud of ya, laddie."
I closed my eyes and felt a moment of sorrow on reading the title. Halo is near and dear to my childhood
Fun video. Maybe next year, for April Fools Day, do the destruction of the USS Enterprise NCC-1701 from Search for Spock.
Or maybe the lost of the SS Minnow.
I was thinking of suggesting the Kobayashi Maru.
Do the Lucrehulk droid control ship that got destroyed in Star Wars episode 1, (wookipedia is telling me it was called the “vutuun palaa”) who would win in a fight? A 3,170 meter donut of death with hundreds of droid Starfighters or one chosen boi who thinks spinning is a cool trick
This or Kobayashi Maru were my thoughts exactly!
Oh, a good video could also probably be made for the very particular and unlikely circumstances that led to the loss of the Super Star Destroyer Executor at the Battle of Endor. That combination of loss of shielding and a direct strike on the main bridge tower by a damaged A-Wing fighter was one in a million, and the damage done to the Empire by that strike and the battle itself far exceeded the already catastrophic loss of life caused by the impact and its aftermath.
I need a weapon.
The closest thing you can get right now to a weapon out of Halo is probably the DesertTech MDR bullpup. Gotta warn you though, it's a heavily overgassed rifle because of its forward case eject mechanism, and the .308 version is pretty rough on shooters, compared to other .308s that weigh the same, or less, even.
I'm a diehard Halo fan and while browsing your channel, I came across this and immediately clicked on it. "Spartans never die, they're just missing in action..."
The mention of the "clinically dead Spartan" took me to wiki. I didn't know Linda was on the Autumn.
She's player 2 in co-op play, iirc
Thanks for the explanation guys this one had me stumped
Did she die for good in the crash or 04's destruction?
@@Specoups I think her pod was ejected from the Pillar of Autumn and found later by Chief after the events of Halo 1. I think she's still currently alive in the canon.
Dude this was absolutely wonderful, you really brought it to life here man. I seriously think you should make a fictional vessels sub series on your channel or a secondary channel, maybe once a month or something, I'd love to see you bring more of these fictional ships to life in this way
I would be interested in him covering the sinking of the White Base.
I still remember being stationed on this ship, more than once we saw combat - sometimes the numbers and ferocity of the enemy are so greatly overwhelming that they had managed to board The Autumn despite all hands manning battlestations.
They used our escape pods, clever bastards they attached a boarding craft after each pod launched.
I served aboard the Pillar of Autumn for seven months in the year 2511. No one could explain why, but the entire ship smelled like canned cat food. Thus, she acquired the nickname "Friskies."
My friends on the Autumn called it the Shaft of Autumn.
One correction: The CCS-class are not supercarriers, they're battlecruisers
Following on this and Ghost Month, I'd love to see a series on the ship losses in The Expanse...just Canterbury and Donnager would be superb.
I love the channel and was brought in by the normal episodes but this "one off" was a total delight. I would love to see more occasional fictional ship episodes. Be they sci-fi or otherwise. Might I suggest the HMS surprise? From Master and commander? Just a thought keep up the great work!
IDK why folk reserve these types of videos for 1st April. Having someone who has managed to pay attention all the way thru an episode of a franchise explain it to you really adds to the appeal. Like when I watched the Alien video you made yesterday, I was like, oh right is that what's going on, and someone else did one about Jurassic Park for their 1st April vid too. As someone who couldn't care less about the story of a video game, this video was just so entertaining thanks, maybe I'll dig in to the lore of games more, rather than just shooting shit.
Really enjoyed this! Just one thing: when a reactor "goes critical", it just means it achieved a self-sustaining reaction, in other words, operating normally.
A self sustaining unmoderated reaction… in a fusion core weighing thousands of tons.
@@MaxwellAerialPhotography criticality accidents can't happen with a fusion reaction. if the fusion reactor fails, the reaction stops. *fission* reactors are the ones where runaway reactions happen
Man I knew I loved your channel then I saw the UNSC pillar of autumn I was mind blown
The cool thing about this is that this sort of video about shipping disasters could actually exist in the Halo universe on whatever passes as RUclips that far into the future.
The UNSC and Covenant always cooking up the best ship name in sci-fi
Your channel is great and somewhat rare quality in YT. This piece and Nostromo are my favourite but I really like your other videos as well. Great job!
Dude, I like this channel and is quickly becoming one of my favorites even though I’ve only been listening for about a week or two and keep up the work and bring us some new content, good job.
This was a suprise considering it's space rather than ocean but hey, it would count as a maritime way. Also the CCS is classified as a Battlecruiser according to Halo Lore. The Covenant Assault carrier is the CAS Class
Their sacrifice bought us the time we needed to win the war they shall be remembered
Only 700 views? REALLY!?! This is some top editing/video quality. I hope you blow up soon!
I like how UNSC ships are basically just large rail guns floating around in space.
Hearing the lore of quite possibly my favorite series ever discussed in this format is special in a way i have trouble pinning down. It is so cool to hear it discussed not as though an explanation of a sci-fi series, but as a documentary-esque exploration of historical fact.
Chad move: making a full-effort video of a different sort for your april fools joke.
This was already becoming my favorite channel before I saw this beauty of a video. Keep up the great work!
Just found your channel about an hour and half ago. Gotta say I was already adoring your content but after seeing you show that you also adore Halo! It’s like falling in love, keep up your amazing content. Look forward to your UNSC Infinity video 😉
You sacrifices were not in vain. Rest in peace Pillar of Autumn, you and your crew earnt it
Great vid - thanks! Summaries of Halo lore like this remind me just how much broad universe-building goes into the series. 🙂
Minor correction: Almost all human space ships during the Human Covenant war had the capability to house a Smart AI. What made Cortona experimental was that she was created from a cloned brain of Katherine Halsey. Normal Smart AIs were made from the brains of the deceased, as the process damages the tissue too much to be done to a live human. The data core modifications mentioned in The Fall of Reach specifically refer to the Mjolnir power armor, as this was the first time a smart ai was able to be used in such a small package.
Other than that, great video! I really enjoyed it as well as the rest of this series!
I love these! Can't wait to see which ship is chosen next!
I love this video. I hope you do more of the sort.
Listened to a lot of your videos, but haven't felt compelled to like or subscribe. You sir, have earned both with this video.
This was the last video I thought is find on this channel. This was bad ass!!
Great vid MH, I wouldn't mind seeing more Halo content. That was a fun watch.
I loved this video. This channel turned me onto the show The Terror and now it's doing Halo! Awesome analysis.
Cortana, all I need to know is, did we loose them?
Great video! I stumbled upon your channel with the lighthouse tsunami disaster video. This is an awesome addition. I'd love to see you do a video on In Amber Clad, the UNSC Frigate from Halo 2
For a brick, it blew pretty good!
This turned my entire week around. Thank you.
Ah, the M-LRV Puma
Thanks for using the ost for background music. A very welcome touch.
Love the music used 1st 3 or 4 minutes... cool you. included this in the Martime Horrrors portfolio
“Listen, Reach has been good to me, time to return the favor. Tell them to make it count.”
😭😭😭
Very cool episode and I would support the creation of more like this.
Really enjoy the couple videos you have like this, and I would like to see other ships from games or movies, other fictional media. Love all your videos, thanks for making them.
I don't know if there's enough cannon to do it, but I would love to see you do something with Starship Troopers.
I'd love to see Sci Fi navy topics like this once a year.
That was a brilliant telling of Halo canon. Do it again!
wait, this isn't a maritime horror, this is an astronomical horror.
Loved it, do more if you can. Doesn’t have to be just halo
Keep up the good work mate! Have you considered doing a video on the UNSC Spirit of Fire?
Much appreciated, shipmate. But this was a bit of a one time thing. I'm primarily a history channel. But maybe I'll do it.
@@MaritimeHorrors Sweet, so long as you keep it in mind. A history of the USS Constitution and her sister ships would be pretty cool too, that vessel has one hell of a story!
This was fucking awesome I’m a massive halo fan and you just made my childhood respect
This was really awesome one
Maritime Horrors I like your utube videos are awesome
Fantastic video
Much obliged, shipmate!
U are a legend for this
That was a Tragedy. My Future grandparents was on that ship when It crashed in to say Hello. I'll miss you memaw lol
I don't understand how this is April fools when it's all fairly accurate to Halo lore if not entirely accurate
are we gonna talk about the platform in the middle of the air holding 2 halves together?
The collab i have always wanted.
“A three kilometre track on the one kilometre ship” I’m loving the shade in your voice!
Ngl the maw is my favorite all time halo mission hearing the alarms blaring after the reactors go crit standing there taking it all in
Loved it!
Awesome stuff!
“Negative… I have the gun. Good luck, sir”
Keyes, Cortana and the Chief were the Autumn's best weapons ❤
Well done brother well put together
Would love another video like this
This was amazing!
a fun video sir. so yes stay with the " normal " horrors for the most part. there is a place for ones like this and the floating tank one you did as well. i would think an 80% -10% mix would be just the right amount of spice for your viewers.
Just two or three little lore inconsistancies, but otherwise an incredible video. Great job!
Was this the story line from Halo 1 or Reach or combination of games?
@@jamesknapp64 Just CE and Reach. The fate of the ship is the same regardless if you go by the books or the games.
This was awesome!
Man, I remember the first time playing Halo. I looked up and saw that giant ring I was standing on, i audibly exclaimed “Wow….” Not may games have impacted me that much.
“With all due respect, Captain, this war has enough dead heroes.”
