'''Warsats''' (short for '''War Satellites''') were orbital military satellites built during the [[Golden Age]] to defend [[Earth]] and the other colonies throughout the [[Solar System]].<ref>'''Bungie (2015-1-21)''', ''Destiny, Activision Blizzard, [[Grimoire]]: [[Grimoire:Allies#Ghost Fragment: Rasputin 2|Ghost Fragment: Rasputin 2]]''</ref>

At least some Warsats are armed with powerful X-ray lasers, being able to destroy targets on the planet's surface. During the evacuation of the [[New Pacific Arcology]] on [[Titan (moon)|Titan]], a Warsat controlled by Rasputin destroyed an evacuation shuttle carrying Dr. [[Shanice Pell]] and other evacuees by a single shot from orbit.<ref>'''Bungie (2019/10/1)''', ''[[Destiny 2]]: [[Shadowkeep]], Playstation 4, Activision Blizzard, [[Lore]]: [[Lore:Last Days on Kraken Mare#Kalki's Burning Sword, Part I|Last Days on Kraken Mare - Kalki's Burning Sword, Part I]]''</ref> Rasputin would later use these munitions against both the Cabal and Vex on Mars. <ref name="Destiny"/><ref>'''Bungie (2015-1-21)''', ''Destiny, Activision Blizzard, [[Grimoire]]: [[Grimoire:Allies#Ghost Fragment: Rasputin 2|Ghost Fragment: Rasputin 2]]''</ref>
Derelict Warsats periodically fall from orbit on [[Earth]], the [[Moon]], and [[Mars]]. The location where one impacts becomes the site of a [[Public Event]]. Guardians must defend the Warsat from enemies while it is scanned and [[transmat]]ted by a Ghost to the [[City]], where it can be carefully studied by the Cryptarchs.<ref name="Destiny"/>
