Space Station Camera, or Space Station J7, was a 20th century scientific research space station in the Third Zone of the Mutter's Spiral galaxy.
Description
The architneers who built the space station made the most of the fact that they were building in zero gravity, building it in such a way that it might look like a thumbprint from one angle and a knuckleduster from another. It was made from opaline, laminated epoxy graphite and fused titanium carbide and had numerous ports and docking bays. (PROSE: The Two Doctors [+]Loading...["The Two Doctors (novelisation)"]) Jamie McCrimmon said that it looked like "twenty castles in the sky". (TV: The Two Doctors [+]Loading...["The Two Doctors (TV story)"])
History
Space Station Camera (TV: The Two Doctors [+]Loading...["The Two Doctors (TV story)"]) alternatively known as Space Station J7, (PROSE: The Two Doctors [+]Loading...["The Two Doctors (novelisation)"]) existed so that scientists of the Third Zone could assemble and embark on pure research. The Doctor attended the inauguraton prior to him falling out of favour with the Time Lords and he befriended Joinson Dastari, the Head of Projects, (TV: The Two Doctors [+]Loading...["The Two Doctors (TV story)"]) whom he would later suspect was disappointed not to have received research funding from Gallifrey. (PROSE: The Two Doctors [+]Loading...["The Two Doctors (novelisation)"]) The station was staffed by Androgums.
Professor Kartz and Professor Reimer conducted time travel experiments on the station, although it was Chessene o' the Franzine Grig, the augmented Androgum chatelaine, who was the brains behind the project and who realised that they needed the Rassilon Imprimatur to make the Kartz-Reimer module work. (TV: The Two Doctors [+]Loading...["The Two Doctors (TV story)"]) She decided to form an alliance with Group Marshal Stike, promising him the TARDIS (PROSE: The Two Doctors [+]Loading...["The Two Doctors (novelisation)"]) in exchange for executing everybody aboard the station once Shockeye o' the Quawncing Grig, the chef, had sedated them with a calgesic. During the massacre, the Second Doctor, sent by the Time Lords with Jamie McCrimmon to stop the experiments, was captured.
The Sixth Doctor and Peri Brown arrived on the station ten or twelve days later in search of Dastari and found that everybody was dead aside from Jamie, who had become deranged with fear. Learning from him of the Sontaran massacre and that the Second Doctor had been present, the Sixth Doctor used telepathy to find his past self and the trio left the station. (TV: The Two Doctors [+]Loading...["The Two Doctors (TV story)"]) According to one account, a power cable caused a fire whilst the Doctor was on the astral plane and which he woke up too late to stop. (PROSE: The Two Doctors [+]Loading...["The Two Doctors (novelisation)"])
When researching the Second Doctor's brief tenure as a Celestial Intervention Agency agent, a Time Lord author suspected that the space station's security systems catching him on tape had exposed the Time Lords, forcing them to carry out the official sentence and have the Doctor regenerate.

Behind the scenes
- Although several sources[which?] spell the station's name as "Chimera", it is spelled "Camera" in the script.
