Overview

In an event that the Doctor described as an "alien fender-bender" (NSA: Peacemaker), a Nedenah ship was damaged and crashed to Earth. As "the Greys", the humanoid aliens later made infamous by UFO lore. (PDA: The Devil Goblins from Neptune).

Three survivors were taken by the American government to a secret base to be studied. The Americans who discovered it were able to strip it for parts, and were capable of creating many new devices derived from the technology. Broadband internet was derived from a mileometer found in the crash. (DW: Dalek) They were also able to reverse engineer and recreate the schematics for the ship. (SJA: Prisoner of the Judoon)

Sarah Jane Smith seemed to think of it only as a minor event in the history of human-alien contact. (SJA: Enemy of the Bane)
