Ceres was a dwarf planet and the largest object in the asteroid belt.
Overview
During the Golden Age, a small space station was built in Ceres' orbit.[2] Sometime after the Collapse a small Dead Orbit expedition was sent to investigate; records from a Ghost indicate the entire team went mad, with the Arach asking all trace of their mission be scrubbed.[2] The Awoken played little part in this.[2]
The dwarf planet was later claimed by the Fallen House of Wolves enroute to Earth from the the Jovians, and excavated to accommodate shipyards and habitats.[3][1] The Reef challenged them to battle. In what became known as the Scatter, Queen Mara Sov deployed powerful weapons called Harbingers that wiped out half of the Wolves, including their Kell, and destroyed Ceres itself,[1][4] beginning the Reef Wars.
