Ascension Islands

Ascension Island is an island in the South Atlantic Ocean, and includes tiny satellite islands and rocks such as Boatswain Bird Island, Boatswain Bird Rock (East), White Rocks (South), and Tartar Rock (West, at the shore of Georgetown). It is a Crown Colony of the United Kingdom. It is one of a number of hotspot oceanic islands in the South Atlantic which include the sister islands of Saint Helena and Tristan da Cunha. The capital is Georgetown.

In 1962 a Dalek soldier, last survivor of the final Time War between its race and the Time Lords, (or so it seemed), fell through time and crashed like a meteorite on the island. The Dalek lay in its burning crater for three days, screaming the entire time, before it was retrieved. It's weapon systems inactive and its outer armor heavily damaged, the Dalek was sold at private auction and passed through several hands over the next 50 years ("Dalek").
