One account suggested that this battle took place in a [[Metaltron timeline|timeline]] where the [[Cult of Skaro]] did not emerge from [[the Sphere]] and precipitate the [[Battle of Canary Wharf]] in [[2007]], thereby explaining why Van Statten and his company were not familiar with the Daleks ([[PROSE]]: ''[[The Time Traveller's Almanac (reference book)|The Time Traveller's Almanac]]'') after the [[Planetary Relocation Incident|2009 invasion of Earth]]. ([[TV]]: {{cs|Victory of the Daleks (TV story)}}) In this proposed timeline, the Cult did not go on to [[Invasion of Manhattan|influence]] the construction of the [[Empire State Building]], nor was the [[Earth]] transported to the [[Medusa Cascade]], since the [[personal timeline]]s of both [[The Doctor's time stream|the Doctor]] and the [[Daleks' timeline|Dalek race]] had not progressed to the point where those events occurred. ([[PROSE]]: ''[[The Time Traveller's Almanac (reference book)|The Time Traveller's Almanac]]'') Other accounts held that humans after [[2010]] were unable to remember the Daleks because of the [[Time field|cracks in time]] ([[TV]]: {{cs|Victory of the Daleks (TV story)}}, {{cs|Flesh and Stone (TV story)}}) and continued to be unaware of the Daleks ([[TV]]: {{cs|The Pilot (TV story)}}, et. al) after the cracks were sealed. ([[TV]]: {{cs|The Big Bang (TV story)}}, et. al) Indeed, the Doctor noted on several occasions that humans were great at forgetting terrible things as a defense mechanism.
