* Captain Fenton surmises that the Thing is "... an alien life form that intruded into our dimension of time and space." Dr Who then goes on to say that it is  "... obviously a cosmic freak, which has broken the normal laws of nature and become totally destructive in our Earthly environment." The Thing needs some kind of cosmic energy to sustain it, and its breathing is defined as an eerie green pulsating light. It is capable of self generating its own a surface force field.
