'''Dead Orbit''' is one of the five [[human]] factions of the [[Guardians|Guardians of the City]]. Dead Orbit Foundries appears to be a shipyard, or an organisation known to produce starships, owned by the Dead Orbit faction.<ref>[http://www.eurogamer.net/articles/2013-02-17-destiny-bungie-unveils-its-shared-world-shooter '''Eurogamer''' ''Destiny Bungie Unveils Its Shared World Shooter'']</ref> Dead Orbit grudgingly maintains a presence in the [[Tower]] to equip their champions in the [[Crucible]].<ref name = "Alpha"/> "Superb" technicians and specialists work for the group.<ref>[http://www.dualshockers.com/2014/06/16/destinys-screenshots-of-all-factionclass-weapons-and-armor-show-that-bungie-hasnt-lost-its-touch/ '''Dualshockers''' - ''Destiny’s Screenshots of All Faction/Class Weapons and Armor Show That Bungie Hasn’t Lost its Touch'']</ref>

Members of Dead Orbit intend to escape an already dying Earth before the [[Darkness]]'s return, as they've given up on the [[Traveler]] and put little faith in the [[City]]'s ability to hold out against a major attack. While they recognize that such a move could be very costly in terms of lives, they see no other alternative for survival, and instead put their faith in finding enough [[Golden Age]] technology in [[vault]]s and abandoned shipyards to allow them to escape and find a new homeworld. They are even willing to cross [[New Monarchy]]'s legal authority to achieve this end, but they also recognize they will need to bring [[Guardian]]s to their cause in order to fight against any future threats.<ref name = "Alpha">'''Bungie (2014-6-12)''', ''Destiny: Alpha PlayStation 4, Activision Blizzard.''</ref>
