SCP#: ANB

Code Name: Aging Radiation

Object Class: Explained / Keter

Special Containment Procedures: Due to SCP-ANB being an Explain Class Anomaly, it does not need to be contained. However, due to the obvious hazard and the fact that it was found by pure accident implies it can claim more lives in the future. As a result, the Coast Guard and Doctors in Coastal cities are to be alerted of the hazard of SCP-ANB and given treatment methods to reverse the effects. It is meant to be treated as a rare and deadly poison and thus will be under the watchful eye of the World Health Organization. It will not be released into the public but instead provided to those that merely need to understand and cure it. Therefore, no containment or censorship by the hands of the Foundation will be necessary.

Description: SCP-ANB is a contaminated area in the ocean where free radicals are manifest within the ocean at [data expunged] coordinates. Free radicals, for those that don’t know, are an ion that has at least one unpaired valence electron. With some exceptions, these unpaired electrons make radicals highly chemically reactive. Many radicals spontaneously dimerize, and most organic radicals have short lifetimes and thus are not harmful to humans. However, when under constant exposure they can have many unforeseen side effects. In the case of SCP-ANB when exposed to water infected with its free radicals, they will suffer the effects of rapid aging. SCP-ANB exposure causes oxidation, which is the loss of electrons as well as a reduction in the gain of electrons. This causes the cells within the body to die faster than they are being reproduced, giving the effect of accelerated aging. Because oxidation affects ions, and as a result molecules and atoms, directly everything is affected by rapid aging whether it be organic or inorganic.

SCP-ANB was discovered in 1995 when Persons of Interest: Fox Mulder and Dana Scully were doing an investigation on the USS Ardent after all the passengers evacuated only to be found on lifeboats dead due to old age despite most only being in their 30’s or 40’s. Not long after, Mulder and Scully were suffering the worst of SCP-ANB influence and so was the USS Ardent causing it to slowly fall apart. Thankfully the agents and cloaked drones that were surveying them altered Foundation staff just in time to get them out and give them the treatment. Though originally Foundation treatment only gave temporary relief, Scully’s personal research managed to find a permanent cure which was quickly used to save them. Once they were saved the USS Ardent was sunk by SFH-2 ″Raven” missile fire and the area closed off by the Coastal Guard.

Because SCP-ANB was easily explained by modern science it was given the Object Classification of Explained. For those that don’t know, Explained are anomalies that can be normalized to some extent with modern science even with their anomalous properties. As a result, though they are still mainly kept hidden from the public they are not entirely censored. Instead, they are given to lesser public organizations such as WHO, CDC, NASA, or just a country's Government. They will be shown how to deal with it and slowly integrate knowledge relating to the anomaly to the public. This makes Explained anomalies extremely vital as they are essential for the natural progression of humanity’s science and technology. But because we don’t know exactly what caused SCP-ANB and if it possibly exists in other areas in the ocean or perhaps even the land makes it a massive hazard. It is for this reason despite being an Explained anomaly, is why it is given the secondary Object Classification of Keter.
