10 Important Doctor Who Questions NOBODY Can Answer
3. How Much Of The Universe Is Still Standing?
On Halloween night 2021, half the universe was destroyed by the Flux as part of a scorched reality policy implemented by Tecteun to protect the Division. The Thirteenth Doctor prevented the other half of the universe being wiped out in December of that year, but it's not clear if the initial devastation of the Flux was reversed.
Decades earlier, the Master interfered with Logopolis and wiped out a significant portion of the universe with an entropy wave. The toll of the Master's universal genocide is never given a solid figure, but we do know that Traken and its star system are destroyed by the wave, which is eventually halted before it devours the constellation Cassiopeia.
So if we combine the destruction of the entropy wave and the Flux, does that make the Doctor Who universe a third of its original size? A quarter?
And let's not forget the Time War, which by its very nature would surely have erased planets and civilizations from existence, or restored them by rewriting the events that led to their destruction!
Is it any wonder that, to quote the Fifteenth Doctor in Space Babies, "the universe is knackered babes"?
That's putting it lightly.
