Eternal Pit

Item #: SCP-XXXX

Object Class: Safe Keter

Special Containment Procedures: A 3m tall fence has been constructed around the area of SCP-XXXX and is to be monitored daily by ██ onsite personnel. The 7km² area around SCP-XXXX is to be patrolled 24/7 by on site personnel. Any satellite, thermal, video graphic or photographic evidence of SCP-XXXX is to be confiscated and destroyed by embedded agents. SCP-XXXX is to be contained in a 12x12m 32x32m Plexiglass and steel containment unit. The area is to be contained in a vacuum at all times. Any personnel entering the area of SCP-XXXX are to be wearing a SS-4 Fire retardent suit capable of withstanding 1400°C temperatures. Any lifeforms of considerable mass attempts to reach SCP-XXXX are to be terminated by sniper fire.

Description: SCP-XXXX is a 7x7m area of land consisting of andesite, granite, obsidian, and partial amounts of sulphur. SCP-XXXX is a consistent flame capable of reaching temperatures of ██████ Kelvin. The means of achieving these temperatures without any assistance of resources is unknown. The exact length of SCP-XXXXs burning time is unknown but is presumed to be roughly █322 years old.

Reports of residents around the area of SCP-XXXX have stated that they have not felt any sudden temperature changes even though SCP-XXXX seems to be emitting high temperatures. Studies have found that SCP-XXXXs flame only affects a 2m radius around the primary source of the flame. This has been proven through various amounts of unnatural materials in the area such as ash , ██████, and glass.

On ██, ██ , ████ SCP-XXXXs size suddenly started to grow unexpectedly, consuming the vacuum containment chamber, rocks, minerals and ██ onsite personnel. Zulu-██ was dispatched to the location of SCP-XXXX and upon arriving found a large ~130 x ~75m pit ~45m deep. Onsite personnel were presumably ██████ during this event, but is unknown due to no corpses being found onsite. SCP-XXXX then emmited a temperature wave consisting of ████Kelvin ██ minutes later which knocked personnel to the ground and caused █ deaths. SCP-XXXX was then orderer to be neutralised by O-5 Council but upon aerial fire extinguishing attempts SCP-XXXX immediately sent out a ██████kelvin heat wave destroying aerial equipment and destroying all constructed onsite buildings within a 4km range. This event resulted in 7█ deaths.
