==History== | |||
For the XK-5's first test, [[Guy Crayford]] travelled into space where he went missing and was presumed to have hit an [[asteroid]]. In actuality, he had been captured by the [[Kraal (species)|Kraals]] who wanted to invade [[Earth]]. Their Chief Scientist, [[Styggron]], convinced him to assist them in their cause. | |||
The Kraals planned to use the freighter to travel to Earth with the [[Kraal android]]s on board, land, have the androids release the [[Kraal virus]] and then [[Chedaki|Marshal Chedaki]] would enter the fray with the invasion fleet. The [[Fourth Doctor]] and [[Sarah Jane Smith]] journeyed to Earth aboard it, passing through a [[space-time warp]]. They travelled down to the surface in [[retro tube]]s carried aboard the XK-5. | The Kraals planned to use the freighter to travel to Earth with the [[Kraal android]]s on board, land, have the androids release the [[Kraal virus]] and then [[Chedaki|Marshal Chedaki]] would enter the fray with the invasion fleet.

[[Devesham Control]] allowed the freighter to land, having received a communication from Crayford saying he would be returning. It came down by the [[Space Defence Station]]. Styggron stayed inside, hoping to be safe from the contagion. Sarah entered and freed [[Harry Sullivan]] and [[Faraday|Colonal Faraday]], who had been replaced in the station by androids.

The Doctor reprogrammed [[Fourth Doctor (android)|his android double]] to attack Styggron, and it knocked him onto a container with the virus inside, killing him. ([[TV]]: ''[[The Android Invasion (TV story)|The Android Invasion]]'') | |||
