- Once you've made it into this section of the Planetary Core, you will need to make your way to the smaller path to the left that isn't illuminated.
- Going down this short path will lead you to a Conflux you can interact with (having completed Specimen NES007).
- Wait for the message //SIMULATION SYNCH INITIATED.
- You now need to spot the Conflux that has a glow at the base of it.
- Repeat this 3 more times.
- It will be revealed you are now in the Ancillary Transit Nexus.
- Once more, a number of Confluxes will appear around the room, this time above the inactive Vex Gates.
- Shoot the Conflux that has a the glowing mote below it.
- Destroying this second set of Confluxes will reveal the first Secret Chest in the middle of the room.

- Jump up onto the dais and insert the Vex Module PARTITION to open the wall, possibly leading you toward a Planetary Piston with a number of Radiolite samples around it.
- Interact with the Pillar Conflux and wait a moment.
- A Vex gate will open over to the right, opposite the Plantery Piston if its there.
- This will lead you back to the Ancillary Transit Nexus, but there is an Active portal over to the left.
- Go into the portal to be brought back toward the beginning of the Exotic Mission.

- Get to the base of the tree and look to the right-hand side.
- Look just behind the roots here to find the Fragment that you need to destroy.
- Head toward the steps that lead to the upward slope walkway.
- Jump up the steps and look to the stone on the right.
- Sitting on the right-hand edge is the Vex Fragment you will need to destroy.
- Now, head to the front of the Radiolaria pool.
- Look to the stone pillars just past it and to the top on the right-hand side, the same as the Pool.
- Toward the top you can spot the Vex Fragment.
- Continue on to the right along this slope and over to the small plateau.
- Look from the Plateau, staying on the right-hand edge, toward the large tree.
- Toward the right-hand side you can spot the next Vex Fragment that needs to be shot.
- Now, go forward and to the right, around the large tree.
- Get in front of the Vex Gate that you went through and look over to the right to the stone structure nearby the front tree.
- Look to the top of the stone structure to find the next Vex Fragment that needs to be shot.

- The Vex Gate just past it will activate, so head on through it.
- This will bring you through to the Ancillary Transit Nexus
- Head across the Ancillary Transit Nexus and into the active Vex Gate.
- This will bring you through to the Aberrant Code Containment.
- Here, you will find a Vex Module: ACCESS by the entrance and you will need to use that to progress through the puzzle.
- There is a Beam going along the ceiling that will show the connection that entering the portal with the Vex Module: ACCESS will create.
- Your goal is to build the same line map using the Modules inside the portals.
- Once started, you will have up to 60 seconds to complete the process.
- There will also be a number of Choral Fanatics appearing to attack you (and blow you up).
