I have seen a lot of talk about the possible location of the seventh hidden chest in the raid. We know that 4 are fixed and are able to get no matter the outcome of each stage through the vault. I have also heard, but not seen that the 5th chest appears in a path just under the 1st chest if a condition is met. That condition I heard was to make sure that none of the Sync Plates from the beginning to be taken back over while the spire is building. The 6th chest appears going down to Gorgon's Maze through the secret cave in the Templar's Room, and it only appears if you keep the Templar from teleporting during the battle with him. Now people have found what they believe could be the spot where the 7th chest might pop up, if the conditions are met. But, at this moment I have not read anywhere of anyone finding this last chest.
I believe that there are 4 parts to this Raid with the hidden chest appearing between each part:
Part #1 - The Sync Plates to raise the Spire
If you meet the right condition a chest appears on the way to the Templar
Part #2 - The Templar
If you meet the right condition a chest appears on the way to Gorgon's Maze
Part #3 - Gorgon's Maze
Everyone has avoided all the Gorgons, or killed 1 and possibly 2, but I have not heard of anyone killing them all. We know that they get harder to kill after each one, making it a challenging task to kill them all, which could warrant a prize if you are able to do (possibly another chest). People have suggested that the spot that they found where a 7th chest could be at is in the canyon after Gorgon's Maze. Hence why I dividend the Raid into 4 parts each dividend by a hidden Chest
Part #4 - Atheon
Mystery of the stopped clock at the end that is not a glitched or Bungie would have fixed it in one of their updates. Their could possibly be something in this room that has not been found yet.
Please correct me if I am wrong on any of this. I based off this on things that I have seen or heard about from people playing the raid. Add to this if you have any information that can help narrow this search. I heard that Bungie has announced that not everything in the VOG has been found.

A couple of friends and I have been talking about this and we are thinking that it could be the last part of the raid. After killing atheon we would try to travel back to the jump quest to one of the islands that is off in the distance. This is all just speculation at this point due to the fact that we have yet to try it after killing Atheon. We were just talking about this two days ago.
