Revision as of 03:00, 24 November 2011

Mutter's Spiral was the Time Lord designation for the galaxy in which the Sol system was located. (MA: The Man in the Velvet Mask, NA: Human Nature, EDA: Alien Bodies) Humans knew Mutter's Spiral as the Milky Way or as Adric referred to it, Galaxia Kyklos. By the time of Sabalom Glitz it also went by the name of the Stellian Galaxy. (DW: The Mysterious Planet)

Mutter's Spiral was approximately a hundred thousand light-years in diameter. Its nearest significant neighbouring galaxy was the Andromeda Galaxy. It was also surrounded by several nearby minor satellite galaxies, such as Galaxy Seven, (NSA: The Eyeless) and the two dwarf galaxies the Larger Magallenic Cloud and Smaller Magallenic Cloud (AG: The Last Voyage).

The Doctor frequented Earth, a planet in Mutter's Spiral. (DW: An Unearthly Child, et al.) On one occasion, Earth was moved out of the galaxy by the Daleks. (DW: The Stolen Earth)

Oseidon had the highest radiation level in the galaxy. (DW: The Android Invasion)
Binary vascular systems were not common in sentient species. (NA: Tragedy Day)
The Tenth Doctor claimed humans were the only species in the galaxy to invent edible ball bearings. (DW: Fear Her)
There were no metamorphic insectoids in the Galactic vector containing the Mutter's Spiral. (DW: The Unicorn and the Wasp)
Tivoli was the most conquered planet in this galaxy, leading to its inhabitants (like Gibbis) to welcome invasion and subjugation. (DW: The God Complex) Other sources claimed that Earth was the most invaded, not only in the Mutter's Spiral but in four more galaxies. (NSA: Borrowed Time)
Xaos was said to be the oldest planet in the galaxy. (DWM: The Warrior's Story)

See star systems, stars and planets.

The Mutter's Spiral had around 150 billion stars. (BFA: The Apocalypse Element)

The Mutter's Spiral was divided into four quadrants. In the Third Quadrant there were at least eight thousand twenty-three sectors, with Sector 8023 containing Earth. (DW: Logopolis) Another sector was the Kappa Galanga sector, which contained the Lasron solar region. (NSA: Prisoner of the Daleks) There were several galactic arms, including the Perseus arm where Mogar was located, (DW: Terror of the Vervoids) a western arm (DWM: Between the Wars: A Slow Night in Paradise) and a secondary and tertiary arm (MA: Burning Heart).

See Galactic law.

There were several forms of galactic government. The Galactic Alliance was one governing body. (SJA: From Raxacoricofallapatorius With Love) It was also under the domain of the Shadow Proclamation. (DW: The Stolen Earth)
