The Watcher’s Citadel

The residence and outpost of Uatu, The Watcher, monitor of Earth and observer of its solar system. The Watchers were among the first intelligent species in the universe, developing a high level of technology billions of years before nearly all other species. The Watchers are led by a Watcher known as the One, who is physically far, far larger than the other Watchers. The Watchers upload all the information they collect into the One, who serves as a repository for all data and records. The Watchers, believing that their knowledge belongs to the universe, came to the planet Prosilicus, interfering in the evolutionary and technological development of a younger species. Despite the well-intentioned actions of the Watchers, the species self-destructed in nuclear warfare. Horrified at what had happened, the Watchers swore a vow of non-interference in the universe.
