Doctor exposes Cybermen infiltration via Bernalium

Zoe's meteorite calculations, though not directly tied to the Cybermen's infiltration, serve as a backdrop to the escalating crisis. Her data highlights the station's precarious position, both in terms of external threats (the meteorite storm) and internal ones (the Cybermen). The calculations reinforce the Doctor's sense of urgency and the crew's need to act decisively. While overshadowed by the immediate threat, Zoe's work remains a critical reminder of the broader dangers facing the Wheel.

Before: Compiled and shared with the Doctor and Corwyn, initially dismissed by Bennett.
After: Acknowledged as accurate but set aside as the Cybermen threat takes precedence; her data remains a latent concern.
