Dark Times

Not to be confused with the The Dark Time; a period in the history of Gallifrey.

The Dark Times was one of the earliest aeons in the history of the Universe.

Events

• The spaceship Infinite was created. (DW: The Infinite Quest)
• The Carrionites raged a war with the Hervoken. (TDA: Forever Autumn)
• The Racnoss fought and were defeated by the Fledgling Empires. (DW: The Runaway Bride)

The Doctor implied that the Dark Times ended with the destruction of the Racnoss and the removal of all huon energy from the universe, meaning that the creation of the Sol system was on the brink of this aeon and the next.
