What was this emergency failsafe called?

Found some old designs from 2012/13, two were made in SketchUp and the other is a drawing coloured in Photoshop. 1's a dinosaur space-time ship, 2's a genetic depository station, and 3's a Silurian (#doctorwho) ship.

While I love series 5’s alternative Silurian design, I always kinda assumed it wouldn’t work with Vastra. I’ve changed my mind. (The design we got has still grown on me...)

Today is the 50th anniversary of episode 1 of The Silurians, first broadcast on 31 January 1970. If you're giving the story a commemorative rewatch, the latest is the companion you need.
