Item #: SCP-041-PT
Threat Level: White ●
Object Class: Thaumiel
Special Containment Procedures: Any space agency or individual identifying SCP-041-PT through audiovisual media must have their content confiscated and Class B amnestics must be administered to all involved and a strong disinformation campaign should be carried out alleging that SCP-041-PT is an observation satellite.
Any documents relating to the engineering of SCP-041-PT are classified under Level 5/041-PT. If this order is violated, all the involved must be severely punished. Such documents are currently stored in a steel safe with a password, known only to Level 5 personnel, at Site PT1-A.
Any and all documents regarding the programming code of SCP-041-PT are located at Site PT1-B, embedded in steel safes, including the book by James Aulner. The criteria by which the code that SCP-041-PT operates must not be cited in any unauthorized document.
Due to the current location of SCP-041-PT, there are no means to retrieve it. In case space agencies are going to execute any launches, the Foundation must inform them of the current position of SCP-041-PT to prevent the destruction of said launches.
Description: SCP-041-PT is a satellite of paratechnological weapons orbiting the earth. SCP-041-PT is made of steel and aluminum, has a communication antenna, solar panels, and other basic systems for operating a satellite. The entire metallic structure used in SCP-041-PT was enchanted with various thaumaturgical symbols. SCP-041-PT has a cannon modified with magic, enabling the ability to fire beams of directed energy. The object has a force field system that activates when SCP-041-PT identifies an object in its collision course. Such force field showed not to suffer from wear or recharge time, this system was made possible by the installation of several random mechanisms with thaumaturgical runes. SCP-041-PT is currently at a distance of 5,895 km from Earth, with the shortest distance recorded being 536 km.
When SCP-041-PT is preparing for an attack, SCP-041-PT-A, -B or -C will manifest as a kind of target on any solid matter. When the beam fired by SCP-041-PT comes in contact with SCP-041-PT-A, -B, or -C it will result in different consequences, each of which has a different color.
SCP-041-PT-A: When a beam fired by SCP-041-PT comes into contact with SCP-041-PT-A, it generates flames with a high heat index and then carbonizes any mass or matter delimited by SCP-041-PT-A. It has been noted that the color of SCP-041-PT-A is blue.
SCP-041-PT-B: When a beam fired by SCP-041-PT comes into contact with SCP-041-PT-B, it generates a high intensity explosion. It has been noted that the color of SCP-041-PT-B is green.
SCP-041-PT-C: When a beam fired by SCP-041-PT comes into contact with SCP-041-PT-C, it results in the total pulverization of any matter delimited by SCP-041-PT-C. It has been noted that the color of SCP-041-PT-C is red.
Discovery: SCP-041-PT was discovered on 8/11/2018 with the outbreak of wildfires in California. Images captured SCP-041-PT firing beams of directed energy. The GoI named "The Technothaumaturges" released documents to the Foundation regarding the origin of SCP-041-PT. The documents reveal that SCP-041-PT was a satellite built by a team of engineers of the Technothaumaturges, led by Dr. James Aulner, also responsible for the development of the paratechnology used, including the operative programming codes compiled in the notes retrieved from his belongings. SCP-041-PT was launched on 9/10/2018, with the goal of defending Earth from any space threat.
The attacks of SCP-041-PT directed at the Earth were caused by a programming error. After the incident, Dr. James Aulner commited suicide.
On 10/11/2018, a team with the objective of decoding the programming of SCP-041-PT was structured.
Investigations regarding James Aulnes were carried out. Videos and photos were found with detailed documents in which James Aulner explain the creation and thaumaturgy behind SCP-041-PT. The research team was composed of researchers from the Technothaumaturges and the Foundation itself. The Technothaumaturges made available any and all resources to the research team.
During the investigations, it was concluded that the programming language used was the junction of other languages used by thaumaturges, this junction was changed to digital media using logics from other types of programming1, however it still is operated anomalously.
As much as SCP-041-PT was reprogrammed, the object demonstrated a malfunction in relation to its defense system. Research is being done to find out why the programming errors persist.
Message from CL5-7 to the entire CL5:
Hello, CL5. I came to say that we managed to avoid the threat of SCP-041-PT. As we have control of it, I suggest reclassifying it from Keter to Thaumiel, using it as a space threat neutralizer.
- CL5-7
Response from CL5-2 to CL5-7:
I disagree. What if there still is any error in the programming of SCP-041-PT? The object still shows a slight malfunction in relation to its defense system. We must not let this happen again. I suggest destroying SCP-041-PT.
