It consists of thousands of rooms, many of which are docking bays and control rooms, including a command chamber where the Prophet of Truth resided which was many stories high. It has many lift rooms which were similar to the ones in the towers in the Halo 3 level The Covenant. It most likely has many engine rooms as well.
