Item #: SCP-XXXX
Object Class: Safe
Special Containment Procedures: SCP-XXXX is to be kept in a standard object holding cell. Requests to test on SCP-XXXX need to be submitted to and approved by Dr. Sadler before testing can take place. Researchers assigned to SCP-XXXX must get a minimum of 12 hours of sleep with the help of a foundation issued sleeping aid before conducting research on the object.
Description: SCP-XXXX is a queen size mattress manufactured by the ████████ ████ company. The mattress is in good condition, aside from a tear on the side.
When an individual who has gone 12 hours without sleep views SCP-XXXX, they will exhibit a strong desire to sleep on it. When the individual (henceforth referred to as the subject) enters REM sleep whilst laying on SCP-XXXX, its effects become prominent. Upon awakening, the subject will report dreaming about speaking with an omnipotent being (hereafter referred to as SCP-XXXX-1). The subject will become increasingly obsessed with SCP-XXXX-1 and partake in a number of rituals in the name of it.
Ritual One: Ritual one consists of the subject praying to SCP-XXXX-1 on a regular basis. The subject matter of the prayers vary from asking from forgiveness to asking SCP-XXXX to cause harm to befall someone they hold in contempt.
Ritual Two: Ritual two consists of sacrificing livestock to SCP-XXXX-1. The subject will make a single laceration on the animal's neck, killing it instantly. If livestock is not available, they will sacrifice small animals, like mice.
Ritual Three: Ritual three is the final ritual. The subject will sacrifice their blood to SCP-XXXX-1 They will create a sacrificial circle and slit their wrists inside of it. If not given medical attention immediately, the subject will die.
Recovery Log: SCP-XXXX was recovered on ██/██/20██, in ████████, CA, after reports of growing cult activity in the town. MTF Elipson-6 (Village Idiots) was sent to the area and discovered SCP-XXXX, and determined that the object was the source of the cult. They successfully subdued the cult, administered amnesiacs, and secured the object.
Special Containment Procedures: Because of its current location, SCP-XXXX cannot be contained within reason as of now. Instead, the Foundation-controlled web analysis bot Beta-17 ("Space Telescope") is to monitor scientific journals, research papers, and forums for information regarding SCP-XXXX. In the chance that information regarding SCP-XXXX is discovered and/or leaked to the public, both information suppression tactics and memetic amnestic agents are to be deployed.
On the chance that SCP-XXXX resumes movement, Site Director Sadler, director of Site-111, is to be notified immediately. Containment procedures are to be modified in regard to the predicted path of SCP-XXXX’s travel.
Description: SCP-XXXX is a spacefaring vessel of seemingly extradimensional origin. The ship appears to be abandoned. It is currently located in Orion's Belt galaxy at approximately ██h ██m ██s, +0█° 0█′ 0█″. It has remained in this location for the past █ months.
SCP-XXXX possesses the ability to create explosions in the vacuum of space, despite the lack of reactive elements. It is highly volatile and actively seeks out space debris to destroy using its anomalous properties. The reasoning behind this currently remains unknown. This behavior appears to be autonomous; there are no entities that could influence SCP-XXXX's behavior.
SCP-XXXX has a secondary anomalous effect where it will produce long-range broadcasts of varying themes. The topics of the broadcast can range from gibberish to its celestial coordinates. However, the most common content of SCP-XXXX's broadcasts consists of famous space-associated quotes that have been altered to cover the topic of explosions. (See SCP-XXXX Broadcast Log for more details.)
- "That's one small spark for man, one giant explosion for mankind."
- “Many years ago the great British explorer George Mallory, who was to die on Mount Everest, was asked why did he want to climb it. He said, “Because it is there.” Well, space is there, and we’re going to blow it the [EXPLECITIVE REDACTED] up."
- "Houston, we have a problematic lack of explosions."
- The word "explosion" in 55 different languages, including [DATA EXPUNGED].
Discovery Log: SCP-XXXX was discovered on 05/17/20██ when amateur astronomer ████ ███ had published several pictures of the object on an online astronomy forum. Foundation assets were notified when several long-range broadcasts were received by several space administrations. The Foundation suppressed any more information on the anomaly from getting out and took control of monitoring it.
