The network is detached from the linear flow of time, allowing the Vex to move through it. It also stores information.

It is possible for living organisms to enter the Vex network, the [[Warlock]] [[Praedyth]] being the first known example of that following their imprisonment in a locked-out-of-time cell somewhere in the [[Vault of Glass (location)|Vault of Glass]]. The 227 simulations of [[Maya Sundaresh]], [[Chioma Esi]], Dr [[Shim]] and [[Duane-McNiadh]] had also been sent into the realm in order to explore it.<ref name="Vex 4" /> In [[Season of the Splicer]], the Vanguard finds out [[Mithrax, Kell of Light]] has knowledge on how to create portals into the network, which enables Guardians to go forth to disrupt the Vex.

[[Pyramidion]]s existing in every [[machine world]] serve as the Vex's main machinoforming engines and supposedly are all intrinsically connected to each other, leading to the same interior space. They also contain massive repositories of information. It is unknown if the intrinsic connection of the Pyramidions is possible through the Vex network or other means.

The [[Infinite Forest]] is yet another simulated reality within the Vex nexus that is controlled by [[Panoptes, Infinite Mind]]. It was created on [[Mercury]] by hollowing out the planet's core and serves as a testing ground for the Vex to simulate different outcomes of the future, in order to achieve one where neither the [[Light]] nor the [[Darkness]] exist.<ref name="Beyond Infinity" />

===City Age===
The [[CloudArk]] of [[Neomuna]] was based in part on studies of the Vex Network. Although it is possible to enter the Vex Network via the CloudArk, the Vex are unable to easily penetrate the CloudArk from their side.


In [[Season of the Splicer]], the Vex locked the [[Last City]] within the Vex network in order to drain power from it, causing the [[Endless Night]].<ref>'''Bungie (2021/5/11)''', ''[[Destiny 2]]: [[Season of the Splicer]] - [https://www.ishtar-collective.net/interactions/splicer-servitor-path-of-the-splicer-i-2 Path of the Splicer I (Quest)]''</ref> It was found that the [[Axis Mind]] responsible for it was [[Quria, Blade Transform]], acting by the will of [[Savathûn, the Witch Queen|Savathûn]].<ref>'''Bungie (2021/5/11)''', ''[[Destiny 2]]: [[Season of the Splicer]] - [https://www.ishtar-collective.net/interactions/splicer-servitor-path-of-the-splicer-vi-2 Path of the Splicer VI (Quest)]''</ref>
