A section of Pinnacle Station high above the surface of Meridian

Pinnacle Station is a space elevator on the human colony of Meridian.^[1] On the surface, the elevator's anchor point was located close to Meridian Station, with a road connecting the two.^[2]^[3]

History[edit]

Pinnacle Station began construction sometime after the Battle of Meridian by the Liang Dortmund Corporation, who had recolonized Meridian and were working to "deglass" the moon's surface. The elevator was already "half-complete" by December 2553.^[4]

In October 2558, the elevator was heavily damaged by a Guardian attack while Fireteam Osiris and colonists were attempting to flee the surface.^[1]
