TARDISes are built with a chameleon circuit, a type of camouflage technology that changes the exterior form of the ship to blend into the environment of whatever time or place it lands in. Although many TARDISes exist and are sometimes seen on-screen, the television show mainly features a single TARDIS used by the show's protagonist, a Time Lord who goes by the name of the Doctor. In the fictional universe of the Doctor Who television show, TARDISes are space and time-travel vehicles of the Time Lords, beings from the planet Gallifrey. The Doctor's TARDIS as it looked between 20, on display at BBC Television Centre The word "Tardis" first appeared in print in the Christmas 1963 edition of Radio Times, which refers to "the space-time ship Tardis", and this publication has often italicised it to connote a ship's name. Generally, "TARDIS" is written in all uppercase letters, but may also be written in title case as "Tardis". The acronym was explained in the first episode of the show, An Unearthly Child (1963), in which the Doctor's granddaughter claims to have made it up herself.
The word "Dimension" is alternatively rendered in the plural.
TARDIS is an acronym of "Time And Relative Dimension(s) in Space".
