'''Space Camp''' (also nicknamed ''Moonbase Alpha'') is a map that was announced in the [[Bungie]] [[Bungie Weekly Update|Weekly Update]] (10/12/07)<ref>http://www.bungie.net/News/content.aspx?type=topnews&cid=12857</ref>. It will be available for download on Xbox Live Marketplace in the future.
 
It is said to be best for objective games, like [[CTF]] and [[Assault]], but also has some natural deadlocks that makes [[Slayer]] interesting and [[Infection]] "terrifying".
 
The map is on an "empty [[UNSC]] space platform"<ref>http://www.bungie.net/News/content.aspx?type=topnews&cid=13824</ref>. This might be an [[Orbital Defense Platform]] like [[Cairo Station]] from [[Halo 2]]. It may be similar to the Halo 2 map [[Elongation (Level)|Elongation]] or the [[Halo: Combat Evolved]] map [[Boarding Action]].
 
The map has a "...shrine to Doctors Tobias Fleming Shaw and Wallace Fujikawa", the creators of the [[Shaw-Fujikawa Translight Engine]]. One part of the map has a deadly chasm, which can be easily traversed once it is "unlocked". This could mean that part of the map is in the vacuum of space. Spacecamp has several such locks and "switches to disable and enable access to various parts of the map". This could theoretically mean that it is a remake/spiritual successor of [[Boarding Action]], with some sort of possible switch to a bridge or something of the sort to link the ships. Space Camp has been described as cleanly beautiful, yet haunting and having signs of abrupt abandonment.
 
== Trivia ==
*Moonbase Alpha is likely a reference to the TV show Space 1999.
*This map is expected to be released with [[Assembly]], in the next [[Map_pack#Third_Unnamed_Map_Pack|map pack.]]
*It is speculated that this map will be a remake of the ''[[Halo 2]]'' Campaign Level, Cairo Station.
*This may be the first map featured in Space for ''[[Halo 3]]'', including Campaign levels.
