13.4 billion years ago, the first stars kindled out of darkness, seeding the future of all life.
This is the in game description for starfire protocol, a warlock chest. However, the oldest known star is only 13.2 billion years old. Therefor, we can deduce that the game is set 200,000,000 years in the future.

What i want to know is. If destiny is set so far ahead in the future, why are the weapons still like todays guns... surely a green lantern style ring, magical gauntlets, skin tight mech suits... i could go on, would be a better fit (but i guess you could say its an alternative universe where thats just the way it is)
