Henry Glassman

Summary

Henry Glassman gained ONI’s attention early in his career with his work in astrophysics and quantum theory. Several of Glassman’s proposals aided the UNSC’s refinement of translight travel and he was quickly integrated into ONI’s B5D experimental research group. He was eventually offered a position on the UNSC Infinity when its crew was secretly assembled. Despite friction between their personalities, Glassman worked with Dr. Catherine Halsey to install the vessel’s Forerunner-based slipspace engines, forever altering translight travel for humanity. During Infinity’s protracted campaign on Requiem, Glassman was briefly captured by the Covenant, a scenario that led the UNSC to the discovery of the mysterious Janus Key artifact.
