Webstars were starships used by the Racnoss Empire during the Dark Times. They were made out of a thin, silk-like subtance strengthened by Huon energy. They were piloted by one Racnoss, and the ship could teleport this Racnoss to and from the surface of a planet and was capable of firing bolts of electricity from its eight points.

Possibly the last Webstar in existence was used by the Empress of the Racnoss during her wait for Earth to develope Huon energy. It was destroyed after its Huon particles were depleted and British Army tanks fired upon it on Christmas Eve 2007 (by the orders of the Master, under the pseudonym Harold Saxon, as Defence Minister). (DW: The Runaway Bride)

Harold Saxon also made mention of the Webstar and the death and destruction it had caused during his address to the British people concerning the Toclafane. He referred to it as the Christmas Star. (DW: The Sound of Drums)

It is possible that since the Empress waited for 4.6 billion years, though it is possible Racnoss can live that long, unlikely though it seems, that Webstars could place their occupants into suspended animation.
