'''Hack the Planet''' is an [[Adventure]] on [[Nessus]]. It is unlocked in tandem with all other Nessus adventures after completion of the mission ''[[Six]]''. It is most closely related to the adventure ''[[Deep Conversation]]'', and [[Release]], and likely precedes both on a narrative basis in the development of Failsafe's skills at hacking and imitating Vex, and her first hand experience of imprisonment by the Vex.
'''Hack the Planet''' is an [[Adventure]] on [[Nessus]]. It is unlocked in tandem with all other Nessus adventures after completion of the mission ''[[Six]]''. It is narratively related to the adventure ''[[Deep Conversation]]'', and [[Release]].


 
During the course of ''Hack the Planet'', Ghost has the idea of using Failsafe's computational firepower to hack into the cybernetic core of Nessus and steal as much information as possible from the Vex Network. This plan backfires however when a Network Mind arrives on the scene to capture Failsafe and prevent her from robbing the Vex. Failsafe is captured and imprisoned by the Vex while the Guardian and Ghost work out a way to rescue her, which they ultimately do, though due to differences in relative time inside and outside the Vex Network, what to the player was only a few minutes captivity, to Failsafe was a decade behind virtual bars. This traumatic experience may be why Failsafe is so insistent during a narratively later adventure, ''[[Release]]'', that imprisonment by the Vex is not a fate she would wish on anyone, and that it is better to die than be held by the Vex. During this decade long imprisonment, Failsafe manages to converse with another "fellow prisoner" of the Vex, whose identity is not known but who may be [[Osiris]], this could explain why Osiris is aware of our events during ''[[Deep Conversation]]''. The Vex authentication manufactured by Failsafe and given to Ghost during that mission could also be the product of Failsafe's decade long imprisonment and subsequent familiarisation with Vex technology protocols.

*The Network Mind Minotaur that captures Failsafe uses the same construct as [[Acanthos, Gate Lord]], possibly identifying the Network Minotaur as a Gate Lord charged with the defence of the Nessus Core.

*The "Network" title of the [[Minotaur]] and [[Cyclops]] bosses during this Adventure, "[[Network Minotaur]]" and "[[Network Cyclops]]", is the same as the [[Hydra]] boss at the end of ''[[Deep Conversation]]'' This fact together with the references to a "fellow prisoner" in ''Hack the Planet'' and "a user in the network named [[Osiris]]" in ''Deep Conversation'', and Failsafe's development of the ability to authenticate Vex logins as well as the fact that Ghost and not Failsafe does all further hacking after Failsafe's imprisonment, suggests a narrative connection between the two adventures.
