Delta III was the third moon of Delta Magna. It was a refuge for the Swampies, natives of Delta Magna forced to relocate there by the humans who had colonized their original homeworld.
This moon was small.It had weak gravity and a thin atmosphere. Humans had released giant squid on the moon in an attempt to recreate the Swampies' original environment. The moon was covered in swamps and bogs and was rich in methane. When humans discovered this second feature, they set up refineries and attempted to exterminate the Swampies, a move opposed by humanitarian organizations such as the Sons of Earth.
- As Terran squid need salinated water to survive, Delta III probably had salt marshes.
The Fourth Doctor and Romana found the fifth segment of the Key to Time there, in the form of the Swampies' god Kroll. K9 remained in the TARDIS, as the moon's marshy terrain would have made it impossible for him to move about there. (DW: The Power of Kroll)
