Another matter raised during the Doctor's trial was the [[1986 Cyberman invasion of Earth]]. It was a [[temporal anomaly]], not part of the orthodox [[Time Lord]] vision of [[Earth]]'s history — and the Doctor's presence on Earth at the time, in his [[First Doctor|previous incarnation]], led to the speculation that he had somehow bent the planet's time-stream out of shape himself, permitting the invasion. Less harshly, it was suggested by the prosecution that the Doctor may have accidentally "ripped" the Earth's [[time stream]] in the 20th century by operating [[the Doctor's TARDIS|his TARDIS]] there too often. The Doctor convinced the prosecution that this line of argument was misguided by pointing out that if excessive TARDIS activity really had deleterious effects on a [[nexus world]]'s time-field, [[Gallifrey]] itself would long have been "a smoking hole in space". ([[PROSE]]: {{cs|The Cyber Files (novel)}}) Elsewhere, however, [[the Accord]] were aware that Earth's timeline was damaged by the TARDIS as a result of its unique faults.
