Considering that the general population of Earth was oblivious of even the existence of extraterrestrial life, much less of the Doctor, it was no surprise humans remained oblivious to the Professor's ongoing efforts to preserve the planet's temporal integrity, and were unaware of her existence.

The Professor was friends with many important figures of Earth history, among them Arthur Wellesley, 1st Duke of Wellington, Robert Oppenheimer, James Watson and Francis Crick (the latter two had a field day with her DNA). | The Professor was friends with many important figures of Earth history, among them Arthur Wellesley, 1st Duke of Wellington, Robert Oppenheimer, James Watson and Francis Crick (the latter two had a field day with her DNA). | ||
== Biographical Summary == | |||
The Professor was born on Gallifrey in the year 13.629 BCE of the Earth calendar, into and in the House of Lungbarrow, as the oldest daughter of the Head of House, Elan. Recognized early on as being true to the House's legacy, Elan used her socio-political influence to have the girl named as a Time Lord candidate (more a formality for Lungbarrows, but it had to be done). Nonetheless, "Mega" (short for Sigma Omega) would grow up like many of her House, that is, a genius late-bloomer, and graduate from the Academy with less-than-stellar grades, but still, a Time Lady, and was recruited on the spot for the High Office of the Valeyards. | |||
