(TV: The Sound of Drums) The year after that, the Tenth Sontaran Battle Fleet made Luke Rattigan develop the ATMOS in cars across the entire planet Earth. This was part of their plan to poison Earth's atmosphere with Clone Feed, so Earth could become the new clone world for the Sontaran species. The Tenth Doctor later cleared the atmosphere, saving the planet. (TV: The Poison Sky)
