* The Saurian Empire is based near the galactic centre of the Milky Way.
* the Saurians aim to conquer the Galaxy and become Lords of the Galaxy.
* The next batch of Saurians to hatch will all be cosmic ray technicians.
* A recent battle against the Orion Fleet killed a lot of the last batch of cosmic ray technicians. 
=== Earth ===
* The Doctor claims that they are representatives of mankind and from the Planet Earth.
* This many thousands of years into the future, the planet Earth has developed invisibility technology, giving them the ability to hide their planet, then moves location and briefly appears and attacks the Saurian Empire in bursts.
== Notes ==
* The author of this story is unknown.
== Continuity ==
* In the opening, it's stated that the Doctor has never been able to accurately pilot the Tardis, a common theme on TV in the 60s. In previous annuals, however, there has always been some explanation as to why he hasn't been able to pilot the ship. For example in Peril in Mechanistria where his difficulties in piloting are attributed to damage caused in a hasty departure from Skaro, and in Terror on Tiro, he blames the hasty departure in The Sons of Grekk.
