Destiny game play question.

I imagine you can set the game to private. Would seem strange not to allow soloing, even if you have to be connected. That said, if it works anything like Journey, the process is completely seamless and the other player might as well be an NPC.

Although, consider that the game and missions are designed solely around allowing players to "phase" in and out. You could have cool scenarios that are designed to be done solo, but then as you get to a point in the mission that becomes too difficult to manage alone, then Bungie could set triggers to commence the matchmaking process behind the scenes and allow others to hop in to help you finish the level. All "by-design", and this sort of stuff could be scripted, handled dynamically by AI systems, etc. Likewise, you could have missions that are Squad-only that do the same thing. Or different combinations of each!
