Trivia

 * The name Moonbase Alpha may or may not be a reference to a line said by a character in the Austin Powers movie franchise.
 * The name Moonbase Alpha may or may not be derived from the long canceled Space: 1999 TV series.
 * in a FAQ in a bungie weekly update, a person asked "Are the orange worm-type thingies in the back of the Scarab the same things as the worms in Hunters, or is it just superficial resemblance?" and bungie answered "The resemblance is not just superficial. A future DLC map might expand upon that mystery." which might mean that OK corral has a crashed scarab, which also means its probably a turf succesor for turf also had a crashed scarab
