No direct mechanism connecting Mrs. Loewes to SCP-1999 has 
been found. As the Museum, where Mrs. Loewes worked as 
a clerk for 30 years, was not affected by SCP-1999 prior to 2009, it 
is theorized that Mrs. Loewes, despite being the focus of the 
phenomenon, had a small range about her person in which 
SCP-1999 did not occur. 


Since her death on / /2009, instances of SCP-1999 have begun 
occurring less frequently (no more often than once every five 
months) but with increased range. SCP-1999 has now occurred in 
the Mid-Atlantic, Southern and Southwestern United States, 
coinciding with places Mrs. Loewes visited in life. No new instances 
have appeared in Germany. While the designation of any place as a 
museum opens it to SCP-1999, no museums dedicated after 2009 
have been affected. Monitoring is ongoing. Frequency of occurrence 


appears to have no correlation to the location of Mrs. Loewes' body. 
Exhumation of the body revealed no anomalous properties. 


Addendum 1999-c: The investigation is ongoing, but at this time 
there are no reports of Mrs. Loewes' maiden name appearing on 
any objects. The oldest object to date found affected by SCP-1999 
was removed from the Stuttgart in 1938 after it had been 
discovered vandalized. The year coincides with Mrs. Loewes' 
marriage. 


Addendum 1999-d: The link between SCP-1999 and "Are We Cool 
Yet?" was discovered during the containment of an art installation 
(now SCP- )in20 , where the word "LOEWES" was found spray- 
painted in three places inside and outside. Instances of the word, 
mostly written in spray-paint, have continued to appear since, 
alarmingly near sites being investigated by the Foundation for 
containment as SCPs. The investigation into possible information 
leaks has been labeled top priority by O5 Council. 


Mrs. Loewes and her family are at this time considered to have no 
connection to "Are We Cool Yet?".

Item #: SCP-2000 
Object Class: Thaumiel 


Special Containment Procedures: The entrance to 
SCP-2000 is disguised as a disused Park Ranger station 
in Yellowstone National Park. Despite several civilian 
trespassing attempts, the entrance has yet to be 
breached in the installation’s recorded history, and no 
further physical containment has been deemed 
necessary. Protocol Plainsight-201 is in effect for 
SCP-2000. Necessary supplies and replacement 
personnel may be delivered via unmarked road vehicles 
or civilian helicopter as appropriate. 


No personnel below Level 4/2000 clearance are 
permitted access to documentation regarding SCP-2000, 
or any protocols associated with its containment and 
upkeep. No personnel below Level 5/2000 clearance are 
permitted access to SCP-2000 below Sub-level 3. All 
personnel assigned to SCP-2000 must submit to a 
neural archetype scan on a monthly basis. Personnel 
stationed on-site must submit to weekly scans, to be 
stored locally. 


Level 4/2000 personnel or above stationed on-site are 
not permitted to leave Yellowstone National Park during 
the course of their assignment. In the event of transfer 
(either elective or compulsory), Class A amnestics must 
be administered, and false memories implanted 
consistent with assignment to other high-security or 
Keter-class SCP objects. Additional personnel may be 
assigned to SCP-2000 and granted temporary Level 
4/2000 clearance at the discretion of the item's HMCL 
supervisor (currently Dr. Charles Gears) and O5 
command. 


The exterior surface of SCP-2000 is surrounded by 


Scranton Reality Anchors (SRAs) every 20 m, arranged 
hexagonally, to prevent incursion by hostile anomalous 
interference. Each SRA’s function must be checked 
semi-annually and replaced as necessary. Technicians 
servicing SRA components may reference Document 
SRA-033, rev 1.0.7. Five Xyank/Anastasakos Constant 
Temporal Sinks (XACTS) capable of maintaining stable 
tachyon flux across the expanse of the facility (maximum 
output rating at 100 W each) have been installed and are 
to be maintained monthly. Technicians servicing XACTS 
components may refer to Document XACTS-864, rev 
1.3.0. 


One Pseudo-Riemannian manifold has been initiated at 
the entrance to Sub-level 4, and must remain open at all 
times. In the event of the manifold’s failure, Procedure 
Dead Euclid-101 is to be executed immediately. Other 
non-anomalous life support and utility systems may be 
maintained in accordance with standard Foundation 
Maintenance Protocol, Section 101.5 (Mission Critical 
Components). Wherever possible, non-anomalous 
materials and resources are to be used for SCP-2000’s 
maintenance and repair. 


In the event of any K-Class scenario which does not 
compromise the existence or function of SCP-2000, 
Procedure CYA-009 is to be enacted as soon as 
possible. Remaining Foundation installations globally are 
to monitor the scenario as it unfolds, preserving what 
material resources are possible under the Ganymede 
Protocol until such time as all remaining sites respond 
“All Clear” to SCP-2000 queries as defined in Document 
2000XKAC-1.9. Upon receipt of “All Clear” code, 
Procedure Lazarus-01 is to be implemented. 


Administrator Note: / want this on permanent 
record, and | don’t rightly care if you think it’s 
an insult to your intelligence; some things are 
just this important. This device is absolutely 
not an excuse to let down our guard or take 


greater risks with SCP objects or cross-test 
them or whatever you might have in mind. 
Primary Containment is still our best chance at 
survival; otherwise there would be no reason 
to make the cover-up so extensive. We can 
only suspend God's disbelief so many times 
before the universe just says “no”. And 
considering what we’ve had to deal with in 
these past few decades, we may have passed 
that point already. 


- Former Administrator Dr. William Fritz 


Description: SCP-2000 is a subterranean Foundation 
installation originally constructed sometime in the last 
years for the purpose of reconstructing civilization in the 
event that a K-Class end-of-the-world scenario could not 
be averted in time to prevent humanity's extinction or 
near-extinction. Since its inception, SCP-2000 has been 
activated at least twice. Foundation records regarding 
SCP-2000’s construction and history prior to this 
assumed first use have been lost. Whether this 
information black-out is the result of accident or design is 
impossible to determine. The mission critical portion of 
this installation begins 75m below ground level and 
extends to a 100m depth. 


Although the scope of engineering required to recreate 
SCP-2000 in its entirety is impossible to execute while 
maintaining secrecy, all subsystems of SCP-2000 have 
been successfully reproduced in laboratory setting; the 
installation and all procedures involved in its upkeep are 
mundane in nature. (See Document 2000-SS-EX for 
information regarding esoteric Foundation technologies 
necessary for SCP-2000’s function). Primary power for 
the facility is a Liquid Fluoride Thorium Reactor (LFTR) 
rated for 1 GW total output, with a reactor life of 70 years 
at maximum capacity. A geothermal generator has also 
been installed to take advantage of the region’s volcanic 
activity. This generator is capable of powering the facility 


in “stand-by” mode indefinitely. SCP-2000 also contains 
water treatment facilities, air purification and recycling 
systems, hydroponic production wings, and housing 
necessary to permanently sustain up to 10,000 
personnel. 


To fulfill its primary mission, SCP-2000 includes 500,000 
Bright/Zartion Hominid Replicators (BZHR). At peak 
capacity, SCP-2000 is capable of producing 100,000 
viable, non-anomalous humans per day (with a warm-up 
period of 5 days). Utilizing an underground Riemannian 
transit pipe to collect raw material from various hot 
springs and underground magma flows in the area, and 
a computer memory bank housing data on all known 
human alleles, this system is capable of recreating any 
lost human genome or generating as many new and 
unique genomes as necessary to repopulate human 
civilization. 


Researcher Note: Use of the BZHR system is 
currently suspended outside of maintenance 
testing and emergency situations (CYA-009 is 
still “go”). Possible hostile incursion is still 
being investigated, and this database is 
proving particularly difficult to de-bug. We're 
still seeing a distribution of congenital and 
genetic defects far above baseline numbers. 
Right now, | can only guarantee about 60-75% 
viability in new specimens. See Addendum 
2000-1. 


- Dr. Christopher Zartion MD, Biotech 
Research and Development 


Humans produced by this process can be advanced to 
any age desired without extending the 5 day incubation 
period. In addition to construction features, the BZHR 
also has the ability to implant memories by 
administration of Class-G hallucinogenics and 
developmental hypnotherapy. Life histories, neural 


archetype scans, and genomes of many Foundation 
personnel — including all personnel of Level 4/2000 
clearance and above — are maintained to ensure that 
SCP-2000 may be activated and Procedure Lazarus-01 
can be initiated by as few as one surviving human. 


After the implementation of the Ganymede protocol 
(indicating a failure of the Foundation to prevent a K- 
Class scenario), SCP-2000's security systems will 
unlock, allowing any Foundation employee to initiate 
Procedure CYA-009. If, after 20 years, SCP-2000 
remains inactive, security will be relaxed further, allowing 
any non-anomalous human being to access the facility 
and initiate the procedure. Once activated, SCP-2000's 
internal monitoring systems will attempt to locate all 
personnel of Level 4/2000 clearance and assess their 
condition. Mission-critical personnel not found will be 
replicated using the most recent neural archetype scan 
on file, and awakened prior to the initialization of any 
other systems. 


After these personnel are revived, security locks will 
resume normal function. For a complete list of 
contingency options available, Level 5/2000 personnel 
may access Document 2000-CYA-09. Note that receipt 
of the “All Clear” code as defined by Document 
2000XKAC-1.9 may be waived only if all other 
Foundation facilities have been rendered inoperative. 
Otherwise, security and MTF elements revived under 
Procedure CYA-009 will be dispatched to all remaining 
Foundation facilities to confirm their function and the 
integrity of local reality. 


Procedure Lazarus-01 will begin when an authorized 
Level 5/2000 Foundation employee inputs the desired 
“Resume Date” into SCP-2000's BZHR control unit. 
Available units will then begin production of prominent 
political and cultural leaders of the time period using 
descriptions/genetic information on file, as well as 
replication of a global populace consistent with the 


chosen time period. Most of SCP-2000’s floor space is 
dedicated to storage of building materials, construction 
equipment, factory machinery, agricultural equipment, 
and computer database storage. In addition to 
infrastructure concerns, a wide cultural base with copies 
of thousands of famous works of art, music, literature, 
and a full backup of the World Wide Web are kept on site 
in the event that other repositories are destroyed. 


HMCL Note: Discovered this note in previous 
iteration records at Lazarus-01 conclusion. 


Researcher Note: /f we ever have to 
do this again, do not set the Resume 
Date further back than 20 years 
before the Event. Not only can we 
piggy-back on a lot of undestroyed 
structures if we do, but it will make 
continuity a lot easier to resume. 
[REDACTED] years is too many. 
We're straining personnel such as it 
is without having to rebuild to 
chronological specifications just to 
save time on the population and 
agricultural demands. Besides, how 
much of the 20th-2 th centuries do 
we really want to re-write, and how 
many times? Isn’t one ‘Great War’ 
hard enough to keep track of? 


¢ Dr. Henrietta Eisenhower, 
Historian 


My tenure as SCP-2000’s HMCL will honor 
this request. Currently pursuing official 
documentation update to account for this 
change. Two World Wars is plenty. We do not 
need to hazard a third. 


- Dr. Charles Gears, HMCL Supervisor 


The first replacement humans housed off-site must 
necessarily be informed of SCP-2000's existence and 
function as they are being created. This strategy allows 
newly constructed humans to assist in reconstruction 
and recolonization efforts directly, and skill sets 
appropriate to reconstruction have been preselected for 
increased prevalence in the first 5 million individuals 
produced. As global population increases, the process of 
diaspora and reconstruction will accelerate 
geometrically, allowing economic and agricultural 
infrastructure to recover as quickly as possible. 


While it is feasible that some replacement humans will 
not survive the initial renovation period, such individuals 
can be recreated indefinitely until all major population 
centers and Foundation facilities have been completed. 
Foundation administrative assets during this period will 
focus on the falsification of dendrochronological, 
astronomical, and radiometric dating records necessary 
to maintain the appearance of historical continuity. 
Please see Document 2000-RetCon v 2.3.3 for details. In 
the event that significant portions of natural habitat are 
also destroyed prior to the project’s completion, refer to 
Document 2000-OneTear v 3.0 for approved rapid 
regrowth methods. 


It is estimated that the world population, manufacturing 
capability, agricultural production, and culture can be 
reset to 2000 CE levels 25 to 50 yrs after the procedure 
is implemented. At the conclusion of Procedure 
Lazarus-01, amnestic agent ENUI-5 will be released en- 
masse, causing all reconstructed humans to forget their 
affiliation with Foundation assets. History will then 
resume from the chosen date. Each procedure will 
necessarily alter the course of human events due to the 
enormous complexity of human social interaction. 
Further research into predictive historical modeling 
based on observations from prior completions of the 
Procedure Lazarus-01 is ongoing. 


HMCL Note: No further proposals for 
behavioral or cultural modification will be 
accepted at this time. Previous attempts to 
ameliorate violent and sociopathic tendencies 
in humanity as a whole have already been 
implemented and deemed successtul. 
Experimentation using second iteration 
subjects indicates that further modification 
would undermine tenacity to such a degree 
that technological and social progress would 
be noticeably inhibited. See Experiment Log 
- for further information.
