The Queen possesses a gravity weapon called Carybdis that was used to smash asteroids into the Fallen during the Reef Wars.

Skolas, the Queen, Osiris, and presumably the Nine all know something is coming from the dark beyond the system. I'm guessing Oryx, considering Eris is freaked out about him, and Rahool talks about a transmission presumably from Osiris that repeats "Oryx Dead King" over and over. I think that's why Osiris set up shop on Mercury. The vibe I'm getting is that the Speaker was Osiris' mentor but Osiris was banished because of his heretical beliefs. What heretical beliefs? The Disciples seem to have an intense fascination with light as a purifying energy, but not the light of the traveler. So mercury is the closest they can get. Brother Vance is out in the Reef under the guise of the Trials to investigate the rumors of Oryx.

The Nine (or just Xur) may have intentionally let Skolas escape to incite his new rebellion against the Queen.
