S12E20 · Revenge of the Cybermen Part 4
Cyber Leader orders rapid bomb deployment

The Nerva Beacon nose cone stands as the designated impact target for the bombs, a sleek wedge of durasteel housing the beacon’s forward access hatch. Though physically distant, it is functionally present as the destination of the Cyber Leader’s command, its central locking collar opening only to authorized systems. The nose cone embodies the murderous destination of Cyberman precision—where planetary destruction is triggered by collision.
