*When the Commander and Zentos question Steven about the TARDIS in the Ark's Control Room in "The Steel Sky", why does the Commander ask "You travel in that black box?" — bearing in mind that the TARDIS is blue? | *When the Commander and Zentos question Steven about the TARDIS in the Ark's Control Room in "The Steel Sky", why does the Commander ask "You travel in that black box?" — bearing in mind that the TARDIS is blue? | ||
:: The Monoids find the TARDIS in the jungle and send a report in, the print-out of which is actually readable on screen, and does indeed refer to the TARDIS as a "black box". Monoids have one large eye. Depth perception with one eye is only possible through indirect means- subconsciously judging the spatial relationships between objects. This would mean an evolutionary advantage toward Monoids whose eyes were better adapted to absorb and process a clearer, more precise image more quickly and make the most out of the light available; in human terms, although likely the eyes themselves would be biologically very different, more rods, less cones- i.e. poorer or non-existent colour vision. | |||
