In the year 200,000, the Doctor states that planet Earth is covered in Megacities.This is likely due to the population reaching a massive 96 billion (DW: The Long Game). From Satellite 5, these megacities are clearly visible from the observation deck. The oceans also seem to be completely covered by these megacities aswell, suggesting that the megacities can be offshore aswell.
