The UNSC Vision of Erebus was commissioned in 2455. The tracking ship's mostly mundane career came to an end in 2516, when the Vision of Erebus was transferred to the Office of Naval Intelligence as a special purpose ship. The tracking ship was subsequently involved in a series of classified operations, including being considered as a watchguard for the Infinity project. The Vision of Erebus was the only Outreach-class tracking ship to survive the Human-Covenant War and remained in service until 2572.
