History
There were several possibilities for the vessel's origins. (GAME: Attack of the Cybermen [+]Loading...["Attack of the Cybermen (game)"]) By one account, it constructed by the humanoid people of the planet Hatre Sedtry in Repton's Cluster. (PROSE: Attack of the Cybermen) The vessel might have been a commercial timeship from the 52nd century, similar to the SS Madame de Pompadour. It might have been owned by the Torchwood Archive, being what was grown from Jack Harkness's TARDIS coral. Stratton might have been the final descendant of Henry van Statten, with the time machine being built from the cumulative work of the Van Statten family. (GAME: Attack of the Cybermen [+]Loading...["Attack of the Cybermen (game)"]) By another account, it was a Time Agency exploratory vessel used to observe the Last Great Time War. (GAME: The Sixth Doctor and the Time War [+]Loading...["The Sixth Doctor and the Time War (game)"])
Whilst on a flight test, the craft crash landed on Telos, resulting in the death of the flight engineer as well as Stratton and Bates' capture by the Cybermen. (PROSE: Attack of the Cybermen, TV: Attack of the Cybermen)
By one account, this vessel was eventually sent to Gallifrey's distant past during the Time War, and was the original inspiration for the first TARDISes. (GAME: The Sixth Doctor and the Time War [+]Loading...["The Sixth Doctor and the Time War (game)"])
Behind the scenes
- The Universal Databank suggested that the Cybermen had stolen the time vessel from the decaying Morok Empire.
