Thanks. But could you please post a link or at least tell me where I can find this?

I don't know if leaks are allowed on any bungie.org site, heh, but search youtube for "tsavo highway campaign cutscene" there should be only one result and that is it. There is a cutscene near the end where Miranda Keyes informs us of the status of the object you want to know about.

In fact the home planet of the Ark is also mentioned in the Server 5 Log:
"The thing we built on that world will vouchsafe their lives"
So I would not think that the Ark is located on Mars.

I don't know what is the importance of Mars through the game but I would like to mention 2 other points where Mars is involved in Halo:
1st: In the first Halo Arms Race trailer Mars is mentoned as the home planet of one Marine. We can see a marine standing in front of the camera and some tiny green letters being typed next to his head. If you have the video in Hi Res and Zoom in you may be able to see that he is called Martian.

2nd: In the first Episode video we can see the following frame (picture taken from wikibruce)

What do you guys think?
By the way today is the full moon isn't it? I wonder if Jonas Volman will give us a clue... ;)

Don't forget Chiron! I think it's stated somewhere that it is either on mars or in orbit around mars.

Yeah Chiron is one mars I remember that. So this means that Spartan clones were being trained on Mars?
Interesting...
