The Cracks were a series of splinters in the "skin of the universe." According to Prisoner Zero, the cracks were in the skin of the universe. The pattern of the Cracks is always the same, and the cause remains unknown. When discussing the cracks with Prisoner Zero, the Doctor stated that somebody must have opened the cracks. When he was asked if he knew what the cause was, the Doctor remained silent. (DW: The Eleventh Hour) The cracks could be a reference to the Pandorica, as Prisoner Zero knows a lot about the Pandorica and the cracks.
