Erm, the Forerunners found Earth late in their fight, built the Ark to preserve the life there for study after the whole Flood problem was taken care of, but mysteriously haven't been heard from since.

-The Forerunners were surprised by something that they found on earth which prompted them to protect it.

-We have clues as to how the halo arrays computer systems processed as they fired.

Which begs the question, "Why'd they still fire it?" Or was the Flood "epidemic" past the point of recovering from?
