uSCP-8621: Aurorium
Object Class: Euclid
Special Containment Procedures: uSCP-8621 is to be contained within a reinforced steel chamber at Site-██, with a layer of lead lining to prevent the escape of any radiation emitted by the object. The chamber must be equipped with a ventilation system capable of filtering out any contaminants or particles that may interact with uSCP-8621. Access to the containment chamber is restricted to Level 3 personnel only, and any interactions with uSCP-8621 must be conducted with protective gear and radiation detectors.
Description: uSCP-8621 is a small, metallic object resembling a sphere with a diameter of approximately 10 cm. The object emits a steady stream of ionizing radiation, primarily in the form of alpha particles and gamma rays. Despite the high levels of radiation emitted by uSCP-8621, it appears to be indestructible and impervious to any form of damage.
When exposed to uSCP-8621, living organisms experience a range of anomalous effects depending on the duration and intensity of exposure. Short-term exposure (less than five minutes) results in a mild euphoria and an increased sense of well-being, as well as heightened energy and productivity. Long-term exposure (more than five minutes) can result in a range of negative effects, including radiation sickness, genetic mutations, and even death.
The exact mechanism by which uSCP-8621 produces these effects is unknown, but it is believed to be related to the object's ability to emit ionizing radiation. The metallic surface of uSCP-8621 has been found to contain traces of various radioactive isotopes, which may contribute to its anomalous properties.
Addendum: uSCP-8621 was recovered from an abandoned research facility in ████████, where it had been used for experimentation on human subjects. The object's origins and purpose are currently unknown, but it is believed to have been created through some form of advanced technology or manipulation of natural phenomena. All interactions with uSCP-8621 must be conducted with extreme caution, and further research is needed to fully understand the object's anomalous properties.
