A Star is Born (audio story): Difference between revisions

Ships entering the exosphere are subject to gravitational pull.
Communications arrays can be used to broadcast messages, such as requests for assistance.
Egrabill is unable to discern Susan's gender.
Kinneret is the homeworld of the Metraxi.
The Metraxi became sterile and so used cloning to reproduce. However, this resulted in the loss of key genetic information, shorting their lifespans with each generation.
The Metraxi are led by Rode, a Provost.
The ship's propulsion generator failed and radiation is leaking from the fission reactor.
The Doctor says he is "well versed in a number of propulsion system" and notes Ian is a "scientist of sorts".
The Doctor and his companions don radiation suits to inspect the fission reactor.
The Metraxi have their own Bible.
The radiation mutates Greneva so that she can have children again. She becomes pregnant as a result and the Doctor suggest many Metraxi will have been similarly altered.

Notes

to be added

Ian recalls his own experience of radiation poisoning. (TV: The Daleks)
The ship in need of repairs before gravity pulls it into a planet mimics TV: 42 where the ship was pulled towards a star.
