The Thal Dome was depicted in one episode of the Kaled propaganda television series ''[[Captain Croag and the Highland Rangers]]'' which featured the title character being captured and tortured in the dome. He eventually made his escape using nothing but a length of rusted pipe as a weapon. ([[BFD]]: ''[[Guilt]]'')

The dome functioned as a counterpart to [[Kaled Dome|one]] used by the Kaleds. At its centre the Thals had constructed a [[Neutronic missile]] to be launched at the Kaled Dome; they hoped this would ultimately win the war against the Kaleds. Their goal was achieved through the help of the treacherous Kaled scientist [[Davros]], who provided the Thals with a chemical formula to weaken the Kaled Dome. Davros used this act to justify letting the [[Dalek]]s lose on the Thal civilians. The Daleks took no prisoners and few survived. ([[DW]]: ''[[Genesis of the Daleks]]'')
As he approached his thirtieth birthday, [[Davros|Tech-Ops Davros]], a member of the Kaled [[Scientific Elite|Scientific Corps]], was sent on a mission to the Thal Dome by the [[Supremo]], the leader of the Kaled people, to destroy a Thal weapons research facility. Other than Davros, the members of the mission consisted of [[Brint|Major Brint]], [[Reston|Tech-Ops Reston]] and five others. However, the mission was compromised by Davros' elder half-sister [[Yarvell]], who was a [[Pacifism|peace activist]] in spite of being a member of the Kaled [[Military Elite|Military Corps]]. She informed her contacts in the peace movement, who in turn warned the Thals of the attack. Although the mission was ultimately successful, Davros was the only survivor. ([[BFD]]: ''[[Purity]]'')
