Planet 14 (or Sol XIV) was the fourteenth planet from the Sun (Sol), and was inhabited by the [[CyberFaction]] ([[NA]]: '' [[Iceberg]] '').


It is believed that Planet Fourteen is or was in the [[Sol]] star system. The name refers to a time when there were at least fourteen planets in the solar system. This count of planets is likely to include [[Mondas]], [[The Moon]], [[Planet 5]], [[Wikipedia:Eris (dwarf planet)|Eris]] and [[Pluto]] as planets. ([[DWN]]: ''[[Doctor Who: Cybermen]]'')

==Astronomical Data==
A faction of [[Mondasian]]s are believed to have left [[Mondas]], whilst it was drifting out of the solar system, to settle on Planet Fourteen and pursue their goal of total [[Cyber-conversion]] (''[[Doctor Who: Cybermen]]''). The existence of such a faction explains the survival of [[Cyberman|the Cyber race]] beyond the destruction of [[Mondas]].

*One account of the Cybermen's creation shows the [[Voord]] of the planet [[Marinus]] using stolen time technology to "quick-evolve" themselves into the earliest Cybermen ([[DWM]]: ''[[The World Shapers]]''). If these "earliest Cybermen" are the Cybermen of planet 14, then [[Marinus]] may be an alias for Planet Fourteen.
