Starting in [[3053]], Halifax was used as a base of operations for [[ComStar|ComStar's]] [[Explorer Corps (ComStar)|Explorer Corps]] Anti-Spinward Operations Area, with the blessings of [[Melissa Steiner]] and [[Victor Ian Steiner-Davion]].  However, with the secession of the Lyran Alliance, and increasingly cordial relations between [[Katherine Steiner-Davion]] and [[Thomas Marik]], the Explorer Corps have all but abandoned their exploration efforts originating from Lyran space.<ref name=EC-13>''Explorer Corps'', p. 13: "Explorer Corps Operation Command Roster"</ref>

In [[3084]] or [[3085]], Halifax was hit by a pirate force, possibly originating in the [[Rim Commonality]], and which mustered at least a combined-arms [[battalion]] in strength. On hand were half of the [[Twenty-fifth Arcturan Guards]] LCT, who promptly smashed the pirate assault, breaking the pirate force and leaving the survivors to run with more than a third of their numbers dead on the battlefield.<ref name="FM:3085p98">''Field Manual: 3085'', p. 98: "Arcturan Guards"</ref>
