Another thing I wanted to talk about is how new information coming from Neomuna is giving us some questions (and answers!) about previously established origins of the colony.
Originally, Spire of the Watcher dungeon lore gave us information that Neomuna was founded by a rogue AI's attempt to save humanity from the Collapse by effectively stealing a single ship from the ECHO project, embedding herself into it with a piece she partioned away before the rest of her were sealed in the Spire.
ECHO project was Clovis' colony project, aiming to colonise the Andromeda galaxy. The project was a joint operation between Braytech and Ishtar Collective. They worked on the colonisation effort and specifically on the AI called Soteria. Soteria, the Augurmind, was an advanced AI based on Braytech's codes and Ishtar's Vex research. Soteria was able to make accurate predictions about possible colony worlds, best routes to get there, viability of travel and so on.
Given that Braytech was involved, Exos were included in the project; Exos were aboard the ships to serve as effectively immortal stewards overseeing human embryo development to start the colony.
During one of the test flights for an ECHO ship, Soteria suddenly deviated from orders. Clovis tried getting her to follow but she refused. She insisted she must take control of the ship and drive it to a safe location to hide it and preserve humanity. At this point, she had already detected the Black Fleet. Clovis refused to listen and ordered her to be pilloried. However, the pillory process is not instant so she managed to section off one piece of her, attach it to one of the ECHO crafts and pilot it away, hidden, to safety. The ship went to the edge of the system and "crashed through azure clouds."
This was obviously meant to mean Neptune. We were led to believe that this was the ship that made Neomuna. But that means Exos were on board and we have not seen or heard of any Exos or Exo technology on Neomuna. Odd! And as a matter of fact, not only are there no Exos, Neomuni apparently did not even believe that living Exos exist!
Scientists have recently confirmed the rumored existence of living Exo units on Earth. Long believed extinct, Exos were creations of Clovis Bray, the result of extended and inhumane experiments on human subjects.
Furthermore, the original ship that made Neomuna is referenced as Exodus Indigo. From Tropopause:
The archivist went on. "We've got historical texts both pre and post-Exodus Indigo...
And some flavour text on weapons:
"Now this puppy came off the Exodus Indigo herself! Though it handles like it was manufactured yesterday."
Neomuna does have some Braytech influences. You can see it in the designs of some areas where there's literally the same assets being used. But also there's much more open references to the Ishtar Collective. More than Braytech! Braytech is left in the designs, but nothing speaks of it.
We also know that Maya Sundaresh (and her wife, Chioma Esi) are one of the founders of Neomuna. This was the first hint that ECHO perhaps wasn't what made Neomuna, at least not directly. Maya and her wife certainly wouldn't have been passengers on a test flight of a colony ship, especially not after Maya resigned from the project because Clovis pilloried Soteria without her permission.
If Maya hadn't been there, then this wouldn't have been an issue, but she was! She founded Neomuna!
But why would she choose Neptune as a destination? Well, Maya spoke extensively with Soteria about colony worlds. Maya was personally pissed off about Clovis partitioning Soteria. Maya would have detected Soteria's flight and tracked her trajectory to Neptune.
Perhaps Maya wanted to see what happened to the ship. Perhaps she wanted to salvage Soteria. Perhaps she believed Soteria's choice of a safe world to hide from the impending doom. So she chartered her own Exodus ship, Exodus Indigo and followed the trail Soteria left. Since the ship didn't aim to leave the system, it would've been able to get to Neptune and disappear.
The Exos being nonexistent on Neomuna suggests that ECHO's "crash through azure clouds" was lethal. That's the only thing that would've killed all Exos aboard and left Neomuni to speculate about Exo survivability. The ship may have been found and salvaged, which would explain the Braytech influences. Also everyone on the Exodus ship would've come form the Golden Age where Braytech designs were probably ubiquitous and well known to everyone. They started building on the things they've known: Braytech and Ishtar.
Really interesting twist and turn! Soteria and ECHO ship are still crucial to Neomuna's existence, as Maya would've absolutely known about where it went and why, as well as trusted Soteria's judgement. And Maya definitely found Soteria there, because she's referenced in the files as having survived and possibly merged back with the Vex, as per her origins. Soteria's (and Maya's!) legacy continues with her involvement with the friendly Vex faction. Without Soteria, her stolen ECHO ship and Maya's trust in the AI, there is no Neomuna.
#destiny 2#destiny 2 spoilers#lightfall#lightfall spoilers#neomuna#maya#soteria#exo#lore vibing#long post#i first thought that maybe the name ECHO-1 was changed to exodus indigo by the passengers#still possible but the problem is maya being on board and perhaps issues with the timeline#and ofc. the exos. who must've somehow not survived#cool stuff! possibly still speculative but the hints are fairly solid#exos are an unknown to neomuni so ECHO must've not survived impact#but maya followed and she would've followed soteria and found her later#and soteria was correct! neptune was safe

oh the saint line about osiris finding a purpose and it being mentoring is the funniest thing destiny 2 has said to me in a LONG time. you mean the mentoring that makes me legitimately angry in real life when i play lightfall? the mentoring that permanantly gave ikora the weirdest set of issues in the world? That one?
#pers#227#destiny spoilers#i was like oh is he gonna say he was looking for catharsis or closure on neptune? objectively what lf was about?#no hes decided he needs to do a bad job at mentoring new and different people <3#dont worry about what ikora says about being his mentee in the wqce. no dont.#dont look at the ikora quote that is permananly saved to my desktop at all times. its fine. no really

As we lay Defiance to rest would like to share my last shower thought what-could-have-been: Mara, who sacrificed literal immortality so that the Awoken would return to the material plane and help the rest of humanity, shares any reaction or thoughts on Neptune, which actively chose to hide from the rest of humanity.
#caiatl’s ‘your sympathies meant nothing to earth’s collapse’ was so good#idk man just hope neptune isn’t a throne world dealy of expansion w new world w massive implications & potential!!!#& now to not go there again#destiny 2#orig

how come we are only just now finding out about a whole civilization on neptune? like in all those hundreds of years no one thought of exploring neptune? which is in our system unlike distant places like nessus. and we went to europa too, io, tangled shore, mercury, venus, titan but not neptune? i'm very lost in the lore but this is pretty much the only question i keep asking after playing through lightfall. i know the veil and everything else will be explained later but now the only thing bothering me is HOW did we not know about neptune prior to this storyline.
im sorry if there is a very obvious answer to this but again i'm not very well-versed in the lore :( thank u for answering in advance!
You're good! It's a good question!
They were very well hidden, and deliberately so. Since they were created in the wake of people fleeing the Collapse, it was always important to get somewhere where they wouldn't be easy to find. We pretty much didn't know about them existing until Osiris had visions due to his and Savathun's connection.
I touched on some other reasons here in this post. Neptune's natural atmosphere and magnetic field made it hard to see both ways; Neomuni had troubles seeing outside and outsiders had trouble seeing into Neptune. Furthermore, one of the early Cloud Striders went to Earth and deleted all records of the colony ship and Neomuna's founding to prevent violent warlords (Dark Age Lightbearers) from coming over and devastating Neomuna.
They were so well hidden that not even Elsie knew about it, and she's been through dozens of different timelines. She makes a point of noting that in Quicksilver Storm lore tab when she finds her pouka and the gun itself. She says that she's never seen any technology like that and has no idea who might've made it.
After Osiris' visions, pretty much everyone pointed their technology into Neptune and scanned it, but nothing was found. I assume that the way they're hidden is deliberately made to obfuscate any attempts at scanning for life or activity, to make it appear barren. It may also have something to do with the CloudArk, since once the citizens moved into CloudArk for safety against the invasion, they are no longer leaving any material trace on Neptune.
Also from Season of the Seraph, Warmind's Avatar head piece:
"I don't doubt that he is," Ikora replies, a note of frustration creeping into her own voice. "But my Hidden turned their eyes to Neptune and found nothing. I can't ignore the possibility that Savathûn planted those visions in his head to misdirect us."
So if Neomuna was not detectable even with knowledge that something might be there, then their ability to stay hidden must've been something that Earth technology simply could not get around. Ships have visited places around Neptune and even Neptune's satellites, but going into Neptune is kinda strange to even think about since it's a gas giant (or in Neptune's case, more accurately, an ice giant, but still comprised mostly of gases and liquids) and not supposed to, like, have things inside.
And since nobody was able to detect anything with technology, there was no point risking a direct flight into potentially hostile territory with so many Pyramid ships around our system. Especially since there was a real possibility that the visions were a trap set by Savathun.
