Mission Control

Item #: SCP-?

Object Class: Safe

Special Containment Procedures: Due to the nature of SCP-? we cannot contain it, but in its location we ask anyone to instead take only pictures and no recordings.

Description: SCP-? is located at Mission Control Centre at Houston, Texas and is only encountered when recording with a VHS recorder in the Mission Control Room. This was first found out by a couple who visited the Control Centre for a day out on 01/16/1991, once this was found the couple told a friend who reported it to The Foundation, who quickly removed the recording from the couples possession. Since then there has been 12 sightings of SCP-? from the public, but as more people move away from VHS recordings the signings have dwindled and cannot be witnessed or recorded on a camcorder.

On the first playback nothing occurs, with the recording going as you had recorded it, but on rewind the second time you won’t have your audio with it, instead you will hear a Apollo Mission instead with the audio being taken from any of the missions, the third and fourth playback will have people, known as SCP-?-1, sitting in the seats of the mission room and on the fifth playback, you will have the opposite outcome of the Apollo Mission, and if you pointed you camera at the screen in any part of the recording a hooded figure will pop up for 1 frame, we believe this to be SCP-?, if you manage to pause it at that frame you can ask it one question before the VHS player bursts into flames, destroying the recording with it, if you miss the frame the VHS player will still combust. We believe that SCP-? is related with SCP-1981 this theory has [REDACTED].

07/26/05: We went to Mission Control and obtained another recording of SCP-? on a VHS tape, on the fifth playback we had Apollo 13 but there was not an explosion on the side and it managed to land on the moon, just as we witnessed the SCP-?-1 human subjects celebrating the landing SCP-? appeared, we managed to pause and ask SCP-? if they were someway linked with SCP-1981, [REDACTED]. After this question the VHS Player set alight and we put out the fire as usual.
