Alpha Probe is a generic UNSC term referring to one of the Slipstream Space probes used by Remote Scanning Outposts. It sends out radio pings and analyzes the spectrum from radio to X-ray.[1] The Alpha Probe, like all probes used by the RSOs, is designed to be able to survive the transition from slipspace to normal space in order to collect data.
Appearances[]
In 2552, the Alpha Probe of the Archimedes, a remote scanning outpost at the edge of the Sigma Octanus system, detected a Covenant Fleet en route to the planet Sigma Octanus IV.[2]
