For the play of the same name, see The Crucible.

The Crucible was the flagship/superweapon of the Dalek Fleet of the New Dalek Empire at the centre of the Medusa Cascade. A mostly spherical space station, the size of a planet, with numerous docking ports on the outside. It also had a unique core of Z-Neutrino energy which powered the Reality Bomb.

During the War in the Medusa Cascade when the New Dalek Empire invaded the captured Earth, the Crucible was at 90% efficiency. (DW: The Stolen Earth) Human prisoners were taken there for the testing of the reality bomb . The Crucible was to be the staging post for the deployment of the Reality Bomb, which would have destroyed all of the universe except for the inhabitants of the station. It was destroyed, with Davros and the Daleks, by the Doctor's clone. (DW: Journey's End)
