The large, roughly spherically shaped craft was able to hold thousands of crew in hibernation pods and an entire self-contained ecosystem for animals to thrive. Some parts resembled outside planetary environments that were a near perfect replica of an environment, though a keen observer was able to sample the air and detect metallic content therein. Another example of the ship's true nature was present in these environments as underneath the soil and sand were metallic plates. Its engines were powered through hydroelectric means with a large ocean that used waves as a form of energy. | The large, roughly spherically shaped craft was able to hold thousands of crew in hibernation pods and an entire self-contained ecosystem for animals to thrive.

Being a father and son, Brian and Rory were able to operate the parallel pilot compartments and steer the Ark away from Earth. At the same time, the Doctor placed the Ark's signature onto Solomon's ship causing the missiles to target it vice the Ark. Solomon was forced to witness his own demise as the missiles crashed into his ship. The Ark and Earth safe, the Doctor and Brian fulfilled the Silurians' plans, establishing a planetary refuge for the dinosaurs, which they dubbed [[Siluria]].

Numerous Silurian Arks were seen above [[Trenzalore]] during the [[Siege of Trenzalore|Siege]], having travelled there in response to [[the First Question]]. They either retreated from the planet or burned in the fighting after the [[Dalek|Daleks]] broke through the [[Papal Mainframe]]'s [[force field]] and plunged Trenzalore into war.
