By this point, the now uninhabited planet was the [[property]] of the [[National Trust]], who kept it preserved by using [[gravity satellite]]s to hold back the Sun while reversing the shifting [[continent]]s to a [[classic Earth]] formation. Ultimately, however, the Trust ran out of [[money]] to the Earth preserved and so, as the [[Ninth Doctor]] put it, "[[nature]] took over".

==The Event== | |||
The coming destruction of the Earth, named "Earth Death", was designated as an "artistic [[event]]" to be witnessed aboard the [[observation deck]] [[Platform One]], a [[space station]] owned and placed in [[orbit]] of Earth by the [[Corporation (The End of the World)|Corporation]] and staffed by [[Crespallion (species)|Crespallion]]s, who were managed by a [[Steward (The End of the World)|Steward]]. The main [[sponsor]] for the event was the [[Face of Boe]] of the [[Silver Devastation]], who invited several [[guest]]s to witness the event. As the [[Ninth Doctor]] observed, these guests were mostly [[extra-terrestrial]]s or [[multiform]]s and composed of "the great and the good" or rather "the rich", being worth "[[zillion]]s". | |||
The guests in attendance, transported via [[shuttle]]s, were the Earth [[tree]]-descended [[Forest of Cheem]], represented by [[Jabe]], [[Lute (The End of the World)|Lute]] and [[Coffa]], the [[Moxx of Balhoon]] from the [[solicitor]]s [[Jolco and Jolco]], the [[Adherents of the Repeated Meme]] from [[Financial Family Seven]], [[Hyposlip Travel System]] [[inventor]]s the [[brother]]s [[Hop Pyleen]], [[Cal MacNannovich|Cal "Spark Plug" MacNannovich]], [[Pakoo|Mr and Mrs Pakoo]], the [[Ambassadors from the City State of Binding Light]]. Lastly, a special guest called forth in memory of the dying world was the Lady Cassandra O'Brien.Δ17, the so-called "last human"; the last "pure" human, Cassandra regarded the others of this time as "[[mongrel]]s". In addition, [[the Doctor's TARDIS]] landed aboard the station as the Doctor took [[Rose Tyler]], a human from [[2005]], on her first trip; using [[The Doctor's psychic paper|his psychic paper]], the Doctor passed himself off to the steward as a guest with Rose as his "[[plus one]]".
