From outside, 79B was somewhat like an inverted, curved [[pyramid]], with four legs/landing struts. It had a [[perception filter]] to blend in with its surroundings and convince anyone who looked upon it that it had always been there. When it took on the appearance of the non-existent upper floor of 79B Aickman Road, even [[Craig Owens]], who lived in the house, accepted the reality of a second storey. | From outside, 79B was somewhat like an inverted, curved [[pyramid]], with four legs/landing struts.

The ship drew power from its pilots, who steered the ship with their thoughts. [[Human]]s were incompatible; the energy-drawing process invariably resulted in the candidate's death. Time Lords were too much for the system and would overload it, enough to blow up the solar system. | The ship drew power from its pilots, who steered the ship with their thoughts.

The ship had a [[hologram|holographic]] autopilot which activated when damaged. The autopilot searched for people to power the ship, using the building's intercom to communicate with people outside and changing its appearance to lure them in. All of the holograms seemed to lure the victims by saying that they needed help.

The Auto Pilot attempted to use the Eleventh Doctor's mind to launch the ship, but the Doctor claimed that his mind would be too much for the system to handle. Craig Owens interfaced with the ship, which shut down because he didn't want to escape or explore; he wanted to stay right where he was. The ship vanished when the emergency shutdown was activated by Craig.
