The Great Breakout was a period in history, around the year 5000, in which humanity continued to spread out to the stars, long following the initial Break-out of the late 21st century. This also meant the solar system became busier as large numbers of frontiersmen and pioneers became concentrated in the asteroid belt while waiting to spread out in the galaxy.
The Fourth Doctor noted that the spread of humanity at this time was like a tidal wave or a disease. He added that when humans got together in large numbers, other lifeforms sometimes suffered. (TV: The Invisible Enemy) The Ninth Doctor told Rose Tyler that, by the 51st century, humanity would have spread out across "half the galaxy". (TV: The Doctor Dances)

This event took place almost nine hundred years after the Revolution of the Ood, at which time the Second Great and Bountiful Human Empire was in control of three galaxies.
