Temporal Nexus Points, also called TNPs, was a Time Lord term to describe parts of the time stream which were more vulnerable to change. (PROSE: A Sourcebook for Field Agents [+]Loading...["A Sourcebook for Field Agents (novel)"], GAME: The Time Traveller's Companion [+]Loading...["The Time Traveller's Companion (game)"]) Some planets and cultures, such as Gallifrey and Earth, were of such importance that their entire history was a series of TNPs, making them receive the classification of "Class 1 Temporal Nexus Point".

Time travel was easier at TNPS, and TARDISes that misjumped often found themselves drawn to them. (PROSE: A Sourcebook for Field Agents [+]Loading...["A Sourcebook for Field Agents (novel)"])

Temporal Nexus Points attacked by the Daleks included Earth, Bav, and Teth. (PROSE: The Dalek Problem [+]Loading...["The Dalek Problem (novel)"])

Mondas was encompassed by a mysterious temporal field which functioned similar to a TNP in some ways and may have been connected to Earth's TNP status. (PROSE: The Cyber Files [+]Loading...["The Cyber Files (novel)"])

By one account, fixed points in time were a kind of TNP which were so vital to the shape of history that they could not be meddled with. (GAME: The Time Traveller's Companion [+]Loading...["The Time Traveller's Companion (game)"])
