SCP-900

Original

Item #: SCP-900

Object Class: Keter

Special Containment Procedures: SCP-900 must be contained in the center of a circular Ridley Magnetic Shell(RMS) at all times. The RMS SCP-900 is contained in is surrounded by a larger RMS, in the event that the smaller RMS should fail so personnel may fix the inner RMS. If both shells fail a one thousand six hundred (1600) megaton nuclear warhead which is positioned above SCP-900's containment cell will be detonated immediately. SCP-900's containment cell is locked and guarded by a team of eight (8) armed guards. Anyone approaching SCP-900's containment cell below Level 5 or Class D clearance is to be terminated on sight. No exceptions. Any and all study on SCP-900 is to be done through security surveillance cameras.

Description: Nicknamed "Ragnarok's Comet" by personnel, SCP-900 was first discovered orbiting Jupiter in 19██. SCP-900 is a large comet composed of several lunar minerals and unknown metals, and many large shards of diamond. SCP-900 is also composed of several combustible and explosive materials. SCP-900's dangerous threat was realized when NASA noticed SCP-900 breaking off from Jupiter's orbit and heading towards Earth. NASA notified SCP, and the NASA and SCP personnel discovered upon analysis via satellite that SCP-900's composition was identical to the remains of the meteor that caused Incident 924, also known as Tunguska. A team was immediately dispatched, disguised to the public as a manned trip to [DATA EXPUNGED]. The team successfully contained SCP-900 using an RMS. SCP-900 was discovered in the process to be three point one four (3.14) times larger than the Incident 924 meteor. SCP-900 was then transported to the ████████ ████, and Site 17 was built around it, where it currently resides. Since it was contained successfully with a magnetic field, it has been determined that all of SCP-900's metals are magnetic, but extraterrestrial. It's also interesting to note that SCP-900 [DATA EXPUNGED] every other [DATA EXPUNGED] for (15) fifteen minutes.

A matter of high distress is SCP's explosive composition. If SCP-900 touches any other matter the explosive materials in it can combust and will set off it's power. The level of it's power is estimated to be [DATA EXPUNGED].

Destruction of SCP-900 is not planned, unless both RMS fail, using the aforementioned technique. Tampering with SCP-900 could cause a worldwide catastrophe.

Addendum: Note from Dr. Fraen to Site 17 personnel

It is of the utmost importance that SCP-900's containment never fail. Should SCP-900 even touch the Earth, due to it's unusual fragile composition, it could cause another wide-spread extinction of all mammals. This is the least thing we need. Take the utmost care of 900.

Addendum: Possible cause of SCP-900's orbit towards Earth

Approximately ██ days after SCP-900 was contained, an abandoned observatory was discovered near ██████████. Inside, personnel found a magnetic device, a telescope aimed toward Jupiter, several documents about Incident 924, several documents in an unknown language, and a diagram of SCP-900's orbit. Personnel believe that the owner(deceased) was going to weaponize SCP-900.

Item #: SCP-900

Object Class: Keter

Special Containment Procedures: SCP-900 must be contained in the center of a circular Ridley Magnetic Shell(RMS) at all times. Said RMS is surrounded by a larger RMS: in the event that the smaller RMS should fail, a space mission may be dispatched to fix the inner RMS. If both shells fail, Foundation Personnel are to liaise with NASA and NORAD immediately and order a multiple-warhead ICBM fired into an intercepting orbit.

Description: Nicknamed "Ragnarok's Comet" by personnel, SCP-900 was first discovered orbiting Jupiter in 19██. SCP-900 is a large comet composed of [REDACTED], implying an intelligent origin. SCP-900 is also composed of several combustible and explosive materials. SCP-900's dangerous threat was realized when an independent astronomer noticed SCP-900 breaking off from Jupiter's orbit and heading towards Earth. SCP Foundation personnel intercepted the asteroid report and terminated the astronomer to maintain operational security.

Under the guise of an unmanned mission to Jupiter, two RMS were dispatched in an intercepting orbit and placed around SCP-900 by remote control. SCP-900 was discovered in the process to be three point one four (3.14) times larger than the Incident 924 meteor. Peroxide motors located on the outer RMS were fired to redirect SCP-900 into a parabolic orbit: said orbit will cause SCP-900 to slingshot around the sun in fifteen years time (████) and, from there, carry it into a high orbit above the ecliptic into the Oort Cloud. Estimated date of return is ███,███AD.

Since it was contained successfully with a magnetic field, instrumentation located on the interior of the RMS have determined that all of SCP-900's metals are magnetic, but extraterrestrial. It's also interesting to note that SCP-900 [DATA EXPUNGED] every other [DATA EXPUNGED] for (15) fifteen minutes.

Destruction of SCP-900 is not planned, unless both RMS fail and the artifact should return to an orbit intercepting the Earth.

Addendum: Possible cause of SCP-900's orbit towards Earth

Approximately ██ days after SCP-900 was contained, an abandoned observatory was discovered near ██████████. Inside, personnel found a magnetic device, a telescope aimed toward Jupiter, several documents about Incident 924, several documents in an unknown language, and a diagram of SCP-900's orbit. Subject belonged to a religious cult known as the "Hammer of God," which believed that humanity was a blight upon "The Mother Earth" and that an asteroid impact was the only option to "drive out the infection." Since that date, said cult has been uprated in threat level and hunted to extinction by [REDACTED].
