How so? MJOLNIR has only 90 minutes of air, not to mention that slipspace travel takes weeks[/quote]
True. But the [i]Ardent Prayer[/i] still had plenty of air. It was intact when transported. Given that Jorge could survive the weeks aboard the ship, he'd come out the other side and be able to escape on either the Sabres or the Seraphs and Banshees.
[quote]and all that radiation would have killed him.[/quote]
Logically, yes. If slipspace portals emit ionized radiation and emit it from the device. Which leads one to wonder why they don't kill everyone on ships regardless. Plus, given that they can cure cancer within hours and that they fight with enemies who use radiation and that MJOLNIR armor has a nuclear fusion power source, radiation poisoning is probably something easily cured, and likely held within Medkits and biofoam.
Plus, looking at it from the canon, we have several instances where the radiation did not kill individuals.
In Reach, Kat, Jun and Carter were directly exposed to "90,000,000 rutgens" of radiation. Yet they didn't die. Technically, they should have been vaporized on the spot.
In Halo 3, John is in the open and exposed cargo hold of the [i]Forward Unto Dawn.[/i] Not only is he exposed to the initial blast from Installation 04B, but he was exposed to the slipspace portal - and even slipspace itself. We know for a fact that he's alive.
In Halo 3: ODST, the entire city of New Mombasa was exposed to "slipspace radiation" from the residue. Yet to our knowledge none of the soldiers and civilians - including Buck - got radiation poisoning to where it was life-threatening or died as an effect of poisoning. [/quote]
1.- We don't even know if that was only the energy built up for the glassing beam or if that's the actual power of the beam, either way it didn't hit them directly.
2.- Problem is, he was wearing a helmet and he wasn't in the same room as the slispace engine.
3.- Again, they were not next to it when it happened, you seem to not notice that Jorge was literally in the center of the slipspace wake, without a helmet.
Also, they cannot cure all kinds of cancer and there has been instances were radiation kills them too, like, i don't know...that one time in Mamore when a terrorist set off a nuke in the middle of the city, killing two million people, with another 8.3 million injured and many more expected to die due to cancers and radiation poisoning for many generations.
