The [[hyper-space video-phone]] recorded the [[Dalek]]s' attempted [[invasion]] and eventual [[destruction]] of [[Alvega]], [[Skaro]]'s closest neighbor. The [[Dalek Prime]] vowed from that point onwards that which they could not conquer they would destroy. ([[COMIC]]: ''[[The Amaryll Challenge (comic story)|The Amaryll Challenge]]'') On [[26 June]], [[Space Station KZ 24]] reported that the main [[Dalek Fleet]] had left Alvega and started heading in the general direction of the [[solar system]]. According to the laser beam interceptor operator on KZ 24, the [[Dalek Emperor|Emperor]] ordered part of his [[fleet]] to stay on Alvega while he led the rest to fresh conquests. Following the report, the [[Malagan Planet System]] of [[Andromeda (galaxy)|Galaxy Andromeda]] ordered the full [[mobilisation]] of its [[army]] in case of any attempted occupation. In their first act of direct hostility towards the Daleks, the Solar System pledged its full support for [[Malagan]] if needed.

As the Daleks continued to conquer, more people on [[Earth]] became aware of their presence with several agents of the [[Universal Secret Service]] mentioning them in their communications to [[Brent Cleever|Twenty One]]. [[Derek Connell]] knew reports on Dalek activity were obtained via [[hyper-space video-phone]] ([[PROSE]]: ''[[From D. Connell of Essex (short story)|From D. Connell of Essex]]'') and [[R. Miles]] noted these among a list of [[news]] stories they kept up with. ([[PROSE]]: ''[[From R. Miles (short story)|From R. Miles]]'') [[J. Gray]] complimented ''[[TV 21]]'' on their coverage of the Daleks, agreeing that a [[headline]] feature to affirm their threat to [[human]]ity was a good idea. ([[PROSE]]: ''[[J. Gray (short story)|J. Gray]]'') The Daleks also took over [[Daleks in popular culture and mythology|large swathes of popular culture]] when a [[film]] called ''[[Dr. Who and the Daleks (Peaceful Thals Ambushed!)|Dr. Who and the Daleks]]'' was produced with [[Peter Cushing (Peaceful Thals Ambushed!)|Peter Cushing]] in the [[Dr. Who (Dr. Who and the Daleks)|title role]]. ([[PROSE]]: ''[[Peaceful Thals Ambushed! (short story)|Peaceful Thals Ambushed!]]'', ''[[From Agent 671107 (short story)|From Agent 671107]]'') [[Lady]] [[Penelope Creighton-Ward]], the [[London]] agent for [[International Rescue]], ([[COMIC]]: ''[[The Vanishing Ray (comic story)|The Vanishing Ray]]'') interviewed [[Roberta Tovey (Peaceful Thals Ambushed!)|Roberta Tovey]], [[Jennie Linden (Lady Penelope Investigates the stars of the Sensational new film Dr. Who and the Daleks!)|Jennie Linden]] and [[Roy Castle (Lady Penelope Investigates the stars of the Sensational new film Dr. Who and the Daleks!)|Roy Castle]] regarding their positions as co-stars. Although all three were [[acting]], the reality of the Dalek threat was not underplayed. Penelope speculated that Roberta had experienced [[sleep]]less [[night]]s during filming and Roy openly admitted he was more scared than when he was in his [[horror]] film. Likewise, [[Parker (Mr. Steelman)|Parker]], Lady Penelope's [[driver]], was visibly terrified when she told him they were going to have [[lunch]] "with the Daleks" and it was not until she elaborated that he calmed down.
