During the Golden Age, the Moon served as an outpost for supporting Humanity's colonies across the system. The remains of an [[Accelerator]] and [[Moonbase]] can be found, used to deliver supplies to the colonies. The moon once housed a thriving human colony of interconnected bases, but now only broken domes and scattered spaces suits half-buried in the lunar soil mark humanity's faded dominance. | |||
After the [[collapse]], the moon was overtaken by the Hive. [[Guardian]]s attempted to take back the moon in a disasterous battle that resulted in thousands of Guardians slain by [[Crota]]. Exploration efforts were repulsed, reporting increased enemy activity, and even strange tectonic phenomenon.<ref name = "Moon">[http://www.destinythegame.com/au/en/game/destinations/moon '''Bungie''' : ''The Moon'']</ref> and the moon is currently classified as a Forbidden Zone,<ref name = "Frontier">[http://www.bungie.net/en-us/Destiny#page=frontier&panel=frontier-The-Moon '''Bungie''': ''The Moon'']</ref> accessible only to the most experienced [[Guardian]]s. The forces of the Hive have infested Earth's moon, and pieces of the surface have cracked and broken off into space. An iconic view of the looming Earth hangs in the skybox, but Guardians would be wise to keep their eyes closer to the ground. A massive fortress known as the [[Hellmouth]] gapes open where the Hive have begun their dig, and sprawling networks of caves and fortified strongpoints wait inside. On the surface of the Moon, forgotten treasure hide in the dust.<ref>'''Game Informer January 2014''', ''page 52''</ref> | |||
