Lunar Penal Colony

The Lunar Penal Colony was a human prison colony located on the Moon.

In the 26th century, the prison was used for political dissidents; being sent there was a life sentence, and hardened criminals from regular prisons were hired as guards and warders. Professor Dale was one of several activists kept at the colony after they protested the war between the Earth and the Draconian Empires. The Third Doctor was also detained when he was believed to be a spy working for the Draconians. (TV: Frontier in Space) Máire Mab Finn set off bombs in an act of solidarity with the prisoners there.

In 200,100, the Ninth Doctor, Jack Harkness and Lynda Moss were to be sent there after being caught disrupting games aboard the Game Station. (TV: Bad Wolf)
