Trivia

 * The Moon's overall design is intended to cause players to feel a sense of mystery and ask themselves questions like, "why is an alien race here?" or, "what happened to the colony and its settlers?" Bungie Lead Environment Artist Sam Jones described the early difficulties in creating the Moon environment because of the Moon's relative lack of color, depth, and terrain features as opposed to larger planets such as Mars.
