VEGA Central Processing is a level in Doom (2016), the complex which contains the supercomputer in which the UAC Mars Base's sentient artificial intelligence VEGA is housed. Unlike the rest of the Mars base, this facility is located in the region of Mars' polar ice cap, in order to aid in the facility's massive cooling requirements. The twelfth mission, I Am VEGA, takes place here.

"You reclaimed the Crucible and are returning to Mars. You must close The Well, the power source of the Hell portal on Mars, to do this you will have to make one last Hell-jump. Samuel has a plan to send you back to The Well's location, he will need your assistance to carry it out."

Mission 12: I Am VEGA

Objectives

Close The Well: Gain access to VEGA main security terminal

Spoiler Warning: Plot details follow.

The Doom marine must destroy VEGA's central processing unit, at the AI's own urging, into order to create another portal into Hell via use of the immense amount of Argent energy accumulated in VEGA's core. Before destroying the mainframe completely, the marine, of his own volition, and seemingly without the knowledge of Samuel Hayden, takes a backup copy of the AI with him.

Spoilers end here.

-==Codex Entry==
-''The internal operating temperatures of VEGA's plasma based neural net are high - extremely high. Early tests of VEGA's proto-plasmic circuity showed temperatures exceeding 1.2 megakelvins (hotter than the surface of the sun). To contain this level of heat, a massive supercooled structure needed to be built to house VEGA's miles of circuity and millions of processing centers. The structure was built away from the Argent Facility to ensure VEGA's secrets remained safe from prying eyes. Access to the VEGA polar core is strictly controlled. VEGA's design is so complex that the study of its inner workings has been given its own field of study - VEGAcore Physics.''
