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 forces of the Hive have now fully infested Earth's satellite, 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> | |||
