...do I have to play through the four stories before I can simply explore?

Nope! I believe you can explore the Tower and the Cosmodrome as soon as you get your jumpship and visit the Tower for the first time.

...can I not summon my sparrow during a story mission?

Press the select (PS)/back (Xbox) button on your controller and the option will present itself should you be in a spawnable location. You need to be outdoors or in a sizable enclosed space like a lobby or something.

...what does it mean when enemies are immune to my shots? Need a better weapon?

Might be an error. I know that the Dregs and Hive at the Grottos are immune to all damage. Just pump them full of more lead and pulses, and see how the situation plays out.

...why does the crucible not show up on my menu of choices in orbit?

When you reach Level 5 a message awaits you from Lord Straxx, the Crucible master, and talking to him will allow you to take part in the Crucible.

I feel like an idiot asking these.

Don't worry. We're all idiots. We should get matching tees!
