Fiction
IDW Generation 1 continuity
Originally a lectureworld, Ofsted XVII was taken over by Curricula, the Galactic Council's academic arm, and turned into a smartplanet™, which mostly meant the charging of tuition fees. Twenty Plus One The Lost Light was in orbit around the planet, when the D.J.D. attacked it, slaughtering the crew and shattered the ship into pieces. Some time later, when a quantum duplicate Lost Light began disappearing, the survivors headed towards Ofsted XVII in shuttles, though only the Rodpod would make it, carrying a small number of crew who had not been aboard the Lost Light's maiden voyage. The Rodpod's crew found the broken Lost Light still orbiting the planet and leaking quantum foam. slaughterhouse

The foam continued to spread, potentially endangering Ofsted XVII because of the worn-down nature of the surrounding space. Thanks to the heroic actions of Rewind and Megatron, the quantum engines were shut down and the foam dissipated, saving the planet. slaughterhouse Part 2: The Road Not Taken
Notes
