Third Zone: Difference between revisions

The '''Third Zone''', also known as the '''Nine Planets''', was an area of the [[Mutter's Spiral]] twelve days from [[Earth]] by [[hyperspace]] travel. It's inhabitants were known as Third Zoners.  

In the Third Zone, [[Androgum]]s were used for menial labour and the currency used was the [[narg]]. Although [[Human]]s had not reached this part of the galaxy, they were known in the Third Zone as "[[Tellurian|Tellurians]]". The Third Zoners were familiar with [[transmat]] technology, and were adept at technologically augmenting other species, turning them into mega geniuses. [[Dastari]] sought to elevate the Androgums, as the civilisations of the Nine Planets were becoming older and effete. They also conducted experiments in [[time travel]] using the [[Kartz-Reimer module]] which measured 0.4 on the [[Bocca Scale]], the [[Second Doctor]] explaining that anything higher could threaten the whole fabric of [[time]]. The [[Sixth Doctor]] even hypothesized that the [[Sontarans]] thought the Third Zoners were getting too powerful and would ally themselves with the [[Rutans]].

Circa [[1985]], the several governments of the Third Zone pulled together to create [[Space Station Camera]], where some of the greatest intellectuals in the universe gathered, including [[Kartz]] and [[Reimer]]. The station came under attack by the Sontarans who attempted to frame the [[Time Lord|Time Lords]].
