== Space travel ==
Space was a [[vacuum]] and was a hostile environment. Many species required a form of [[spacecraft]] to travel through space. Some species such as [[Time Lord]]s could survive for a time in the vacuum of space, though they still needed to breathe [[oxygen]]. ([[TV]]: ''[[Four to Doomsday (TV story)|Four to Doomsday]]'', ''[[The Doctor, the Widow and the Wardrobe (TV story)|The Doctor, the Widow and the Wardrobe]]'')
Development of the ability to travel through space was regarded as one of the first real steps species took in their planetary and species' development. The [[Time Lord]]s developed space travel when "the universe was half its present size." ([[TV]]: ''[[Genesis of the Daleks]]'') [[Human]]ity's first sojourn into exploring space began in the mid-[[20th century]] with the launch of several [[satellite]]s. ([[PROSE]]: ''[[Alien Bodies]]'')
=== Biological abilities ===
[[Kitling]]s were a species able to travel through space (and time) without any technology. ([[TV]]: ''[[Survival]]'', [[PROSE]]: ''[[First Frontier]]'')
Likewise, the [[Eight Legs]] could also transport themselves through space. ([[TV]]: ''[[Planet of the Spiders]]'')
=== Space/vacuum exposure ===
[[Krynoid]] pods survived exposure to the vacuum of space by hibernating during voyages through space. ([[TV]]: ''[[The Seeds of Doom]]'')
[[Wirrn]] also survived in and travelled through space. They could live without fresh air for several years, but needed to return to a planet for food or to breed. ([[TV]]: ''[[The Ark in Space]]'')
The [[Rutan Host]] could travel through space without any effects. ([[PROSE]]: ''[[Shakedown]]'')
