In ''[[Destiny]]'', The Tower acts as the main hub for Guardians in between missions or [[Crucible]] matches. It is one of four "Social Spaces" available in the game, the others being the [[Vestian Outpost]] in the [[Reef]] (available in [[House of Wolves]]); [[the Lighthouse]], available after going flawless in Trials of Osiris, and the [[Iron Temple]] on [[Felwinter Peak]] (available in [[Rise of Iron]]). At the Tower, Guardians can interact with fellow Guardians, or the many NPCs present.
