This topic might have a better name.

History

One of Kennedy's last acts was to order Moonbase Eisenhower to shoot down the US rocket Lincoln. (AUDIO: 1963: The Space Race)

(TV: Silver Nemesis) The Ninth Doctor was photographed in the crowd of onlookers moments before Kennedy's assassination. (TV: Rose) It is suggested that he did not have to die as it was not a fixed point. (TV: Let's Kill Hitler)

John F Kennedy International Airport in New York City was named after him. (PROSE: Times Squared)

Madame Tussauds figure. (TV: Spearhead from Space)

Wax replica

In 1970, the Third Doctor and Liz Shaw visited Madame Tussauds' hall of world leaders in the course of their investigation into the Autons. Among the figures representing American presidents was one of Kennedy. He stood in front of George Washington and next to the then-current President, Richard Nixon. (TV: Spearhead from Space)

Alternate realities

In an alternate timeline caused by the Valeyard's use of the Dark Matrix, Kennedy was killed by zombies some time prior to 1963. (PROSE: Matrix)

In another alternate timeline, River Song used hallucinogenic lipstick on President Kennedy to help build Area 52. (TV: The Wedding of River Song)

In an alternate timeline envisioned by James Stevens, Kennedy survived his assassination while his wife died instead. His survival led to a nuclear war. (PROSE: Who Killed Kennedy)

Behind the scenes

• The Autons were the adversaries in both of the television stories in which President Kennedy's likeness was shown, either in a photograph or as a wax figure. (TV: Rose, Spearhead from Space)
• Low television viewership on Saturday 23 November 1963, resulting partially from Kennedy's death the day before, prompted the BBC to re-air Doctor Who's very first episode, "An Unearthly Child", the following week on 30 November 1963.
