Theory:Doctor Who television discontinuity and plot holes/Day of the Moon


 * Never-minding that two people probably couldn't lift a rock of dwarf star material, where did the US government get dwarf star material in the first place if they're just now getting to the moon?
 * Planet Earth has dealt with numerous of aliens and especially alien technology. Secret organisations such as Torchwood where up and running at the time. Earth is educated in many things alien they only went to the moon because the silence edged them too. -- Michael Downey 01:33, May 1, 2011 (UTC)


 * Why was the Doctor captured and Amy, Rory and River hunted down? If they were working for the President, surely nobody would capture them and lock them up?
 * This was most likely part of the Doctor's plan in order to gain intelligence on the Silence.


 * The Doctor put the device in Apollo 11 before he received the video of the Silent and before he even knew what it was going to say. Why would he set it up?
 * Canton was probably trying to make The Silent order their deaths. It was the plan.


 * How come The Doctor, Amy, Rory or River try to kill The Silence on sight? They must have seen the Lunar Landing.


 * Why didn't the Doctor sense that the Little Girl was a Time Lady?
 * The Doctor can't always sense a Time Lord or Lady if they are not synchronised with his time line, for example, The Master during Series 3.
 * Or also, the space suit the Little Girl was in was composed of "atleast 20 races of alien technology", so because of all that stuff (and the fact that space suits are supposed to be air tight), he probably couldn't smell her, since she was out of the suit before the Doctor got to it.


 * What happens to all the bodies of the dead Silence that are killed by the humans in the open?


 * If the Silence have been guiding the human race's technological development, couldn't destroying the Silence cause a decline in humanity's technological growth?
