From Halo
something looked familiar when I first glanced at this avatar. I finally figured it out
it resembles a carbon atom -the most basic building blocks of life- life cannot exist without carbon
it would make sense because of what the ark is suggested to have preserved (life)
the four points that stick out of the glyph represent the four electrons in the outer electron cloud
it has been said that chemistry is universal... and that other life in the universe would understand it
carbon is the "logo" for life
