About this episode
Item #: SCP-6001
Object class: Keter
Special Containment Procedures: SCP-6001 is to be contained within three layers of Faraday Cages at all times, never to be accessed by unauthorized personnel. Between each layer of the Faraday Cages there’s an airlock, making it impossible for all three to open simultaneously. Authorized personnel include [REDACTED] suffering from Cirrhosis, and [REDACTED] with terminal lung cancer. Entry by unauthorized personnel will result in immediate death by decompression sickness. Description: SCP-6001 is a yellow orb with a constantly changing pattern measuring 11 inches in diameter, weighing about 12 pounds. It was located on the ocean basin at point nemo, extracted on 06.03.17 by the [REDACTED] team led by Dr. Zielinski who took leave before incidence #01. The orb emits a unique electromagnetic signature that makes it easy to track. This signal is also thought to be the cause behind its illness producing qualities. The illness mimics severe decompression sickness. Should more than three of the following symptoms be observed in a singular member of the containment crew, evacuate the site immediately: joint pain, dizziness, headache, confusion, extreme fatigue, numbness, weakness.
