The 2060s Dalek invasion of Earth was a conflict between the World Government of humanity and the Dalek Empire. Although Dalek and human forces directly clashed on several recorded occasions, the war was largely characterised by a lack of fighting. Within the solar system, tensions gradually rose in official circles as news of the Daleks' technologicial advancements reached them. On Skaro, the Daleks were guided by a directive to invade and conquer the entire universe which, as they encountered more humanoid species, evolved into a specific desire to stamp out the quality which the Dalek Prime labelled "human spirit".

A blindspot for some time, the Daleks eventually discovered the location of Earth after a passenger spacecraft from the planet landed on Skaro. The Emperor immediately launched his fleet in preparation for the invasion. However, the culmination of multiple years of hostility was foiled in most part by the outside involvement of the Elders, telepaths of great power who had seeded Earth in the distant past. Just one ship survived the onslaught, which carried the Emperor and his closest advisors, the Black Dalek and the Red Dalek, who vowed as they fled to return for another oppurtunity to invade. Kaslan, leader of the Elders, acknowledged this inevitability, telling Commander Trent and his men that the Daleks would be resisted by "another" at some point in the future.
