'''Arcturians''' were an peaceful [[bird]]-like race native to a planet orbiting [[Arcturus (star)|Arcturus]]. They were of small stature and possessed [[wing]]s, [[claw]]s, and webbed feet.

The Arcturians learned that the density of their world's [[atmosphere]] was steadily decreasing, and would be completely gone in a million years. When the air became too thin for flying, they decided to flee in a great [[fleet]] of [[spaceship]]s for a better world. After many thousands of years in space, during which their wings atrophied and they lost much of their technological knowledge, they crossed the forty [[light year]]s between their world and [[Earth]], upon which they hoped to settle. They discovered [[the Doctor's TARDIS]] had materialised in the middle of their fleet and brought it on board their ship, where they told the [[Second Doctor]], [[Polly Wright]] and [[Ben Jackson]] their history. Knowing that the people of Earth would mistake the Arcturians for invaders and kill them all, the Doctor sent them to the [[Ninth Dimension]] so they could find their own home.
