I\'m going to contend this. This is presuming that Harbinger can actually SEE. It\'s possible he doesn\'t have optical vision as we understand it, but rather senses emissions, electronic signals, etc. It is, after all, a ship. Those \

I\\\'m going to contend this. This is presuming that Harbinger can actually SEE. It\\\'s possible he doesn\\\'t have optical vision as we understand it, but rather senses emissions, electronic signals, etc. It is, after all, a ship. Those \\\"eyes\\\" are just lights on its head, not necessarily optics.

The Reaper on Rannoch seeing Shepard is understandable, as Shepard wasn\\\'t cloaked or using a powerful mass effect engine to hide herself, nor does she have a Reaper IFF in her head that would disguise her.

So it\\\'s basically two points:

* The Normandy is a super stealth ship, most advanced in the galaxy
* Stealth systems + IFF means Harbinger couldn\\\'t detect the Normandy, since he doesn\\\'t have ocular vision

Also, the point about how fast the Normandy got there doesn\\\'t hold, I think. It can travel faster than the speed of light.
