Trivia

The Vestian Outpost gets its name from the minor planet 4 Vesta. It is the second largest body in the Asteroid Belt and, at roughly 326 miles in diameter, is one of the largest asteroids in the Solar System. The Vestian family of Asteroids, a cluster of some 235 core bodies with thousands of smaller members are designated as "V-type asteroids" or "vestoids", which are the result of two separate impacts on 4 Vesta's southern hemisphere approximately 1 and 2 billion years ago. The Vestian Outpost is located either on or nearby the "sunward side" of one of the vestoids.
Like the Tower, the Vestian Outpost contains a ball that players can interact with. The ball is ostensibly a Servitor's core (possibly the core of the heavily modified and visibly hollow Servitor that Variks uses to communicate to players in the Prison of Elders), and will light up and make Servitor noises when kicked and while in motion. If the core is kicked fast enough, it will begin to emit a trail of purple light.
On the ground near the Postmaster is a switch that will activate and deactivate the lamp on the table next to the Postmaster.

Gallery

A screenshot of the work-in-progress Vestian Outpost from Destiny's E3 2013 teaser trailer. Note the differences from the final version (missing catwalk and staircases, no vendors, no Reef ships, different scenery). A lone Fallen can also be seen in the bottom left corner.
A second screenshot from the E3 2013 trailer, showing Guardians in the area. The Fallen from the previous screenshot is on the left.
