Titan (moon)

"The great monuments of mankind's utopian Golden Age now lie toppled or half submerged within the rolling ocean that blankets the entire surface of Titan. All that remains is a flotilla of construction barges and a lone human habitat that serves as the perfect hiding place for some of humanity's scattered forces — and some far more sinister below"

- Website description

Titan is the largest moon of Saturn. One of the legends of the Nine states that they are ancient leviathan intelligences originating from either Europa or Titan.

Overview
Titan is a methane ocean moon, decorated by Golden Age, Hive, and Fallen structures that dominate the planet.

History
During the Golden Age, the Traveler transformed Titan into an ocean moon. The moon became the site of the New Pacific Arcology, a large self-sustaining artificial island with its own seaport. The Arcology was known to trade with nearby celestial bodies, such as Hyperion.

Centuries later, the moon would become a warzone for Guardian, House of Dusk, and Hive forces. The moon can be seen from a distance on the Dreadnaught. While the Fallen appear to be scavenging golden age technology as normal, the Hive have attempted multiple times to sink the Arcology beneath the methane seas. Reportedly, something big lurks deep within Titan's oceans.

Trivia

 * Some of the structures on Titan have names, such as "Kemphaan" and "Poelruiter". These are Dutch birds that usually live in wet areas, suggesting that some of the first people on Titan were Dutch. This could also be a reference to the fact th’at the Dutch are famous for dealing with water, or in this case, the oceans of Titan.
 * The Hive are exclusively present on Titan in Destiny 2.
 * There is a creature seen and mentioned lurking in the methane ocean of Titan, it's spikes can be seen breaching the ocean surface from time to time. In the Arcology CPU room you can see it pass by the glass walls, it's massive shadow taking up the whole middle of the window. There is also a scannable terminal that says it was used to monitor underwater vessels docking to the rigs during the golden age and that a large object was still moving around under the ocean.
