*In late 2013, Europa was a major location planned for the [[Comet]] that would eventually become ''[[The Taken King]]''. Along with the [[European Dead Zone]], the area was never completed and was later dropped from the expansion in March 2014 when Bungie decided to focus on the [[Dreadnaught]].<ref name = "Messy">[http://kotaku.com/the-messy-true-story-behind-the-making-of-destiny-1737556731 '''Kotaku''' - ''The Messy, True Story Behind The Making Of Destiny'']</ref> It is still mentioned in the game, as noted above in Vance's quotes, and in the Grimoire.

**Concept art exists for a [[Cabal]] military installation known as Fleetbase Everest on Europa. As it was cut along with the rest of the area at this time, it's unclear whether there was ever canonically a Cabal presence on the moon before [[Season of the Chosen]].

**Additionally, in [[Cayde's Treasure Island Book|Cayde's Treasure Island]], a book that came in the collectors edition for ''[[The Taken King]]''. There is a sketch that bears uncanny resemblance to Europas destination map.<ref>https://www.forbes.com/sites/paultassi/2020/09/23/destiny-2-really-showed-us-the-europa-map-two-full-years-ago-during-forsaken/</ref>
*In [[Rasputin]]'s [[Seraph Bunker|bunkers]] during ''[[Season of the Worthy]]'', the advance of the Pyramids is monitored on a simple star chart, using a dot matrix to represent the system's planets and moons along with the Pyramids themselves. For unknown reasons, likely related to the single Pyramid's presence, Eris and Drifter's arrival on the moon, and interference from Clovis Bray in relation to the Pyramid and Deep Stone Crypt, markings for Europa are visible on this chart, but are not illuminated like the rest of the moons in the system.

*There are snowstorms on Europa that will make it difficult for a player to see and blow them around if they are on a [[Sparrow]].

*In the [[Beyond Light]] Collector's Edtion Vanguard Report, it is stated that Europa has "some vague abyssal connection to [[Titan (moon)|Titan]] and [[Enceladus]]" but these rumours are "unsubstantiated".
*When listening to Radio transmissions at the Campsite in Beyond, depending on where you are in the Beyond Light Campaign and Post-Campaign Quests, you can hear messages from three of Eramis's lieutenants.
