| '''Vostok Observatory''' is a Soviet-era scientific facility located near the summit of [[Felwinter Peak]] in [[Old Russia]], [[Earth]]. It was accessible only by a gondola system.<ref>'''Bungie (2016/20/9)''', ''[[Destiny]]: [[Rise of Iron]] Playstation 4, Activision Blizzard''</ref>

| ==History==
| |
| By the time of the [[Golden Age]], it had been decommissioned and was used as a public museum under the care of the Vostok Observatory Historical Society.<ref>[[Grimoire/Places/Earth|Grimoire Vostok]]</ref> The [[Warlord]] [[Felwinter]] rediscovered the observatory during the [[Dark Age]] and made it his fortress, where he kept a throne. Upon joining the [[Iron Lords]], Felwinter granted them permission to build their stronghold on his mountain.<ref>[[Grimoire/Allies/Iron Lords|Felwinter]]</ref> Lord [[Silimar]] designed and built the [[Iron Temple]] across from the observatory.
| |
| | |
| After the fall of the Iron Lords to [[SIVA]], Lord [[Saladin Forge]] sealed the Iron Temple and Vostok Observatory was consequently abandoned. Some four-hunded years later, the [[Fallen]] [[House of Devils]] attempted to capture the Temple. The [[Guardian]] cleared them out of the observatory and prevented [[Sepiks Perfected]] from breaching the Temple's inner sanctum. With the rise of the new generation of Iron Lords, the Temple and the observatory once again bustle with dozens of Guardians.<ref>[[King of the Mountain]]</ref>
| |
| | |
| During the [[Red War]], the Observatory was converted into a [[Crucible]] map by [[Lord Shaxx]], being eponymously named [[Vostok]].
