Cassini

From Destinypedia, the Destiny wiki

A damaged ship in the Cassini fleet.

Cassini refers to a fleet of damaged ships floating around Saturn.[1][2] The ships may be remains of human ships from the Golden Age.

Trivia[edit]

  • Cassini is likely a reference to the Cassini–Divide, one of the main gaps in Saturn's rings. This gap between the outer and inner ring systems gives the planet's rings their distinctive 'double hooped' appearance.
  • Bungie showed the picture of the Cassini derelict around Destiny's release, but it does not appear anywhere else in the game. There is a mention of the Cassini Library located in the New Pacific Arcology on Titan in the mission Utopia, but it has probably been named after the aforementioned gap in Saturn's wings.[3]
  • The Cassini fleet is possibly the same as the First Fleet, led by Captain Drystan Cor.[4][5]
  • The Cassini fleet concept art shown above was likely the inspiration for Presage.
