Station Tau Partnering with SCP Foundation
Station Tau Newsletter - 11/██/20██
Station Tau is proud to announce our newfound partnership with the SCP Foundation. They have agreed to contribute to our projects with additional funding and researchers. In exchange, we will move Station Tau to the asteroid belt, tracking Dwarf Planet Ceres. The Foundation has requested to keep the motives behind this hidden. Certain non-foundation personnel have assisted with the Foundation in this motive, but without proper clearance, we have elected to redact information unless the user is one of these personnel.
At the request of the Foundation, we have also updated the STADaVS with the Foundation's Authentication System. This change should have a menial impact on the STADaVS experience, so this should not be a concern.

LOADING DOCUMENT "SCP_XXXX"…
Special Containment Procedures:
Due to SCP-XXXX’s location and nature, proper extraction and/or containment is currently impossible. Patrol Base Occator-Beta is to report to Station Tau on an hourly basis the visual appearance of the Crater Center and the current seismic activity on the dwarf planet's surface. Station Tau is to promptly follow a set of instructions based on these readings, and relay said instructions back to Occator-Beta.
Station Tau's Weapons Laboratory is tasked with the creation of the following devices:
- RFF Detonation Charges, explosive devices that burrow into Ceres' underground before detonating. This forces SCP-XXXX to move to the locations where the charges were detonating, which prevents it from breaking the surface temporarily.
- Surface Dampeners, devices that upon impact sent Seismic Events underground which force SCP-XXXX to move further underneath the surface of Ceres.
Station Tau's Innovations Laboratory is tasked with the creation of the following devices:
The Large-Diameter Deployable Metal Dome, or the LDDMD. The LDDMD is to match the size of the Crater Center, set to approximately ██x██ meters. The LDDMD must have the capability to drill itself █ meters into the Crater Center. If proper storage and/or compatibility is not possible, The LDDMD will be attached to the exterior of Station Tau.

Description
Dwarf Planet Ceres as seen by Station Tau Satellite Imagery. Occator Crater Marked.
SCP-XXXX is a substance located underneath the surface of Dwarf Planet Ceres. On the majority of the surface of the dwarf planet, SCP-XXXX is located underground, obscuring itself below Ceres' rocky surface. However, SCP-XXXX has broken the surface in the Occator Crater. Though it is not visible via Satellite image, faint quantities of SCP-XXXX can be seen in the sizable area surrounding the Occator Crater.
On the surface, SCP-XXXX is a luminescent substance with a light blue tint. This substance’s exact physical properties have yet to be determined, but current reports from Patrol Base Occator-Beta report SCP-XXXX to be in a plasma state, and reported to be at the temperature of █████ degrees Kelvin. The compositional structure of all non-planetary matter, including organic matter, within a ███ meter radius of SCP-XXXX will be shattered instantly. The rate of disassembly decreases spanning farther out until reaching the safe distance of █ kilometers, where matter will remain intact.
SCP-XXXX has been confirmed to disrupt and hijack all communication systems within a ██ kilometer radius of the Occator Crater. SCP-XXXX will then display its own auditory and visual frequency, which has been confirmed to [DATA EXPUNGED] all who hear and/or see said frequencies.
Dwarf Planet Ceres, and SCP-XXX initially came under the attention of Foundation scientists when on 01/██/20██, satellites reported an increase in the quantity of SCP-XXXX visible from the surface of Ceres. The Foundation created an alliance with Station Tau, an international research vessel shared by previously unaffiliated scientists in order to analyze SCP-XXXX more thoroughly. The Foundation agreed to partially fund Station Tau's unrelated projects, and in exchange, Station Tau would travel to Ceres so the Foundation could investigate SCP-XXXX in more detail.
SCP-XXXX is aware of seismic events on the surface of Ceres and 'moves' a part of itself to those areas. This information has allowed for relatively effective suppression of SCP-XXXX.
A short time after Station Tau’s arrival, its communication systems were disrupted by SCP-XXXX in the event that is officially referred to as “Comms Incident One.” ███ personnel were affected by Comms Incident One. Afterward, Station Tau scientists were elected to interview personnel who managed to witness SCP-XXXX’s broadcasts without being affected by them.

Dr. Douglass: How did you survive Comms Incident One when it occurred?
D-1543: There was an auxiliary room in the Weapons Laboratory without communication equipment.
Dr. Douglass: Did you see or hear what was being broadcasted during Comms Incident One.
D-1543: I saw an entity of possible organic structure. It seemed to be burrowed within the core of Ceres.
Dr. Douglass: Were you able to hear any auditory feedback?

Dr. Douglass: Where were you at the time of Comms Incident One?
Dr. Alisher: I was in the Innovations Laboratory, leading the effort to create Flood Dampeners for use on the Occator Crater.
Dr. Douglass: That appears to contradict D-1543’s summary. D-1543 said that you were in the Weapons Laboratory, working on units for Operation Theta. Is that right?
Dr. Alisher: I’ve never worked with D-1543 or on Operation Theta in the duration of my employment aboard Station Tau.
Dr. Douglass: Interesting. How did you survive Comms Incident One?
Dr. Alisher: I evacuated the laboratory as soon as the frequency began to change.
Dr. Douglass: Did you see or hear any part of the broadcast?
Dr. Alisher: I saw nothing, but did manage to hear the full duration of the broadcast.
Dr. Douglass: How were you able to hear the broadcast if you evacuated the laboratory?
Dr. Alisher: I could hear it from another part of Station Tau.
Dr. Douglass: What is it that you heard?
Dr. Alisher: It was a female voice that seemed to speak to me personally. It told me about its disdain for life, and its ambitions of everlasting order, before cutting off. I tried to respond, but it didn’t listen.

D-1543: No.
Dr. Douglass: Remember that deceiving a higher Foundation member or Station Tau personnel will result in immediate termination of employment, followed by exile to Earth.
D-1543: I am in no way deceiving you. Dr. Alisher was there. You can check the security footage for validation.

On 02/1█/201█, the day after Comms Incident One, Station Tau released Patrol Base Occator-Alpha to the Occator Crater, being planted █ kilometers from the Crater Center, tasked with the safe collection and investigation of SCP-XXXX. Occator-Alpha was stationed by three Foundation scientists, Dr. ██████ and Dr. ███ █████. Another task, also assigned to Dr. ██████, was tasked summarizing the findings of Occator-Alpha for Station Tau. However, after relatively eight months, Station Tau lost all communication with Occator-Alpha.

LOG-001: “Hello from the Occator Crater. This is Dr. ██████, alongside my fellow researcher Dr. ███ █████. Communication Systems are functional, and we have successfully connected to Station Tau’s primary server. Our mission is the successful extraction of SCP-XXXX. I will also be reporting on a weekly basis the results of our findings.”
LOG-002: “Day 7. SCP-XXXX seems to react to minor seismic changes in the ground. The blue mass at the Crater Center moves around to the location where we test flood dampeners. We have not had the capability to perform extraction until this realization. The blue mass seems to grow and shrink beneath the surface, possibly burrowing itself underground. When this occurs, the blue mass turns white. The blue mass seems to be the 'head' of SCP-XXXX while the white mass seems to be the 'tail' of SCP-XXXX. We currently have no higher-quality descriptions.“
LOG-003: Day 14. Me and Dr. ███ █████ have been trying to find any correlations involving when the head of SCP-XXXX is at the Crater Center and when the tail is at the center, to no avail. We’ve tried finding if the presence of Station Tau in orbit is a determining factor, no connection there. We’ve tried finding if the presence of the Sun is a determining factor, no connection there. We’ve tried if our presence in Occator Alpha is a determining factor, no connection there. (We only left Occator-Alpha for two hours, and our life signs are of no concern.) Daily operations mainly consist of me researching the ejection of SCP-XXXX, and Dr. ███ █████ researching methods of extraction.”
LOG-004: Day 22. For some reason, when I tried to upload this log yesterday, all of Station Tau’s communication systems were offline. We are mainly focusing on physical methods to extract SCP-XXXX, but that idea is quite ambitious, considering the fact that we are █ kilometers away from the Crater Center. However, we are making progress as the days go by, and I am fairly certain that we are closing in on an idea. One event of note that happened two days ago was that while I was walking down the hallway, I passed by another version of myself. He bares no resemblance to Dr. ███ █████, and fully bares resemblance to me. That might be another thing to research in Station Tau. This might be a coincidence, or a lucid dream, but it is something to note.
Log-005: Day 29. Me and Dr. ███ █████ have successfully found a method to extract SCP-XXXX from the Crater Center. We are planning to construct a linear transportation system up to the safe distance from the Crater Center. We will then turn the transportation system tube underground. When the tail end of SCP-XXXX is visible from the Crater Center, we will activate a vacuum-like system that will extract SCP-XXXX. In order to prevent SCP-XXXX’s high heat levels from becoming a burden on our research, we have designed a system that will cool anything flowing through the transportation system to approximately absolute zero. That way, we’ll be safe, and so will SCP-XXXX. We have requested a few caches of building material and extra personnel to assist us in construction. On another note, the doppelganger of myself appeared a few times in the past seven days. It doesn’t seem to talk to me, but instead mumbles to itself. I will make a report on what it is trying to say if I find out.
LOG-006: Day 36. Station Tau has greenlit our construction plans, and sent down all of our required materials and labor. They left a message simply stating to keep within the minimum safe distance, and to not construct the vacuum system until their Innovations Laboratory can design a more effective method of extraction. They have also given us permission to cease log uploads until construction is finished. Before I go radio-silent, I want to say that my doppelganger was saying some cryptic messages to itself. For example, it said that “Life is corruption, and I am the purification” and that “The solution will break from its cage.” I don’t understand what deeper meaning that had, but I do have a theory. It is entirely possible that ‘the cage’ is the Crater Center, and that this clone is a manifestation of SCP-XXXX’s desires. Other than that, construction of the machine will begin posthaste, and I will return when it is complete.
LOG-007: Day 246. Reporting back to Station Tau, because the construction of the machine has been completed. The Innovations Laboratory sent the extraction system just a few days ago, and that was the final part. However, an unfortunate series of events have also occurred. Dr. ███ █████ has died. The cause of death is currently unknown, but he died peacefully in his sleep. Coincidentally, my doppelganger, despite being overt regarding his existence, disappeared the day after Dr. ███ █████’s death. I can’t say whether there is any correlation between my doppelganger’s disappearance and Dr. ███ █████’s death, but the timeline brings forth suspicion. On the bright side, the D-Class personnel that were sent down from Station Tau have supported me since. Other smaller bases have been constructed around Occator-Alpha. It’s like an entire colony done here, and it will only become larger once we activate our machine, which we dubbed “Extractor-XXXX” and acquire SCP-XXXX. I am sure we can find its origin, and find its containment method. Activation begins tomorrow, and so will my next report. Wish us luck.

Occator Crater. Crater Center, Patrol Base Occator-Alpha, and Patrol Base Occator-Beta Marked.
Following the incident at the former patrol base Occator Alpha, investigation of SCP-XXXX became the Foundation’s highest priority. Occator-Beta, a new patrol base was planted several kilometers away from the ejection chasm in comparison to Occator-Alpha. The two head scientists in Occator-Alpha gave the theory that there was no correlation in SCP-XXXX's attempts to break out of Ceres. However, after new findings were reported, a correlation was confirmed. The quantity and ferocity of each attempt has been rising ever since Station Tau arrived. The latest attempt to break from the Crater Center has caused the ground within a █ kilometer range to crack open and split, similar to aftermaths of high-level earthquakes on Earth. Findings from Station Tau have concluded that within an unknown but certain time, SCP-XXXX will have the capability to completely break the surface of Dwarf Planet Ceres. If the LDDMD is unable to contain it further, it may have the capability to reach Earth If SCP-XXXX reaches Earth, it will result in an SK-Class “Barren Earth” end-of-the-world scenario. An addendum was added to Subdocument Crater Center Protocol to accommodate for these new discoveries.
A contingency plan, the Station Tau Final Descent Protocol, was created on 09/██/202█ and sent to Station Tau, Occator-Beta, and the entirety of the Foundation. This plan contains the instructions for if and when SCP-XXXX’s has broken Ceres' surface and the LDDMD.

FINAL DESCENT PROTOCOL // SCP-XXXX FINAL CONTINGENCY
The Station Tau Final Descent Protocol is the contingency plan dedicated to if and when SCP-XXXX has broken the surface of the Occator Crater Center and has broken the Station Tau Large-Diameter Deployable Metal Dome, or the LDDMD. The Final Descent Protocol is to be executed immediately upon the report of an "Occator Exigent" and "Occator Calamitous" Crater Center Protocol from Patrol Base Occator-Beta. Occator Exigent occurs when SCP-XXXX has broken the surface of Dwarf Planet Ceres. Occator Calamitous occurs when SCP-XXXX has broken the LDDMD. At this point, SCP-XXXX will have the capability to reach any location in the Solar System, including Earth. Any lifeform that comes in contact with SCP-XXXX below the Safe Distance will be vaporized due to SCP-XXXX's high temperature. If SCP-XXXX reaches Planet Earth, it will result in an SK-Class “Barren Earth” end-of-the-world scenario.
The Final Descent Protocol is to be initiated above all directives without question. Resistance or objection to the execution of the Final Descent Protocol will be met with lethal force. Heed the Final Descent Protocol at all costs and ignore all potential for collateral damage to Station Tau or Dwarf Planet Ceres. The instructions for the execution of the Final Descent Protocol are as follows:
- Once the "Occator Exigent" and "Occator Calamitous" reports have been received by Station Tau, Station Tau will disable all communication channels indefinitely.
- Station Tau will issue a total evacuation notice. All personnel excluding Dr. Lisa Alisher and Station Tau Captain Addison will evacuate Station Tau within a two-hour time period.
- Captain Addison will initialize Station Tau's thrusters and set course to crash upon the Occator Crater. Dr. Lisa Alisher will arm the Nuclear Charges created in the weapons laboratory, and set them to detonate upon impact.
- Captain Addison and Dr. Lisa Alisher, if possible, will evacuate Station Tau.
- Station Tau will crash on the Occator Crater, and the Nuclear Charges will activate, destroying Patrol Base Occator-Beta, Dwarf Planet Ceres, and if executed properly, SCP-XXXX. Patrol Base Occator-Beta is to not be informed of the Final Descent Protocol.
- Evacuation Vessels will land at Site 18 on Earth. All personnel aboard Station Tau, including Non-Foundation personnel, will be quarantined for exactly one year, followed by administration of class A amnestic. All foundation personnel will be honorably terminated from employment.
- During the one-year period, all personnel will undergo physical and psychological tests to ensure that the effects of SCP-XXXX have not been carried to Earth.
- All personnel who have witnessed the auditory and/or visual broadcasts of SCP-XXXX during Comms Incident One are to be executed without question.
- All personnel who have reported to have seen or heard copies of themselves are to be executed without question, along with the corresponding copy.
- Global media in alliance with the Foundation are to run disinformation campaigns to dampen knowledge of Station Tau and Ceres' destruction, and SCP-XXXX.
- Testing within the asteroid belt is to not occur until zero counts of SCP-XXXX have been reported.
Failure to heed all of these instructions will render the Final Descent Protocol a failure. Failing to complete the Final Descent Protocol has the potential to result in an SK-Class “Barren Earth” end-of-the-world scenario. This document is to not be edited until further notice.
