The solar engineers answered to the [[Gallifreyan Council]] for funding, but could order around the [[biological engineer]]s; it was on the solar engineers' orders, as part of the ongoing attempt of the early spacefaring [[Gallifreyan]]s to set themselves up as [[god]]s to "lesser species", that the biological engineers created the Calculating Animals with Tails, or [[Gallifreyan cat|cats]]. | The solar engineers answered to the [[Gallifreyan Council]] for funding, but could order around the [[biological engineer]]s; it was on the solar engineers' orders, as part of the ongoing attempt of the early spacefaring [[Gallifreyan]]s to set themselves up as [[god]]s to "lesser species", that the biological engineers created the Calculating Animals with Tails, or [[Gallifreyan cat|cats]]. | ||
[[Rassilon]] and [[Omega]] were both originally solar engineers before they used their knowledge to use the detonation of a [[black hole]] to invent [[time travel]], fundamentally overhauling Gallifrey's society and its place in the universe. Ironically, though they had originally been among the few solar engineers who resisted the "become gods to the lesser races" plan in favor of worrying about the future of Gallifrey itself, Omega and Rassilon's research was what allowed the Gallifreyans to genuinely become [[Time Lord|nearly godlike]].
