SCP-10004 : T.T.

"Thermodynamic Tantrum" Due to its composition and localized anomalous effects, SCP-10004 cannot be relocated from its recovery site in the Himalayan mountain range. Outpost-88 has been constructed around the entity to facilitate continuous containment. The containment chamber must be kept at a constant temperature of -45°C. A redundant array of twelve industrial-grade liquid nitrogen cooling units must operate at all times. In the event of a primary cooling failure, secondary and tertiary backup generators are to engage immediately. SCP-10004 must be continuously monitored via thermal imaging and acoustic sensors. Any increase in the entity's core temperature above -40°C, or any recorded "fracture acoustics" (vocalizations resembling grinding ice), will trigger Protocol Solstice. Under Protocol Solstice, localized atmospheric pressure is to be artificially dropped, and super-cooled liquid nitrogen is to be flash-flooded directly onto the entity's surface until internal stabilization is achieved. Public access to the surrounding mountain peaks is restricted under the guise of an unstable glacial fault line and military airspace. Description SCP-10004 is a crystalline ice cluster approximately 4.2 meters in diameter, roughly the size of a large boulder. Visually, it resembles standard glacial ice, though its structural density is exponentially higher, and it possesses a faint, internal bioluminescence that shifts between deep blue and pale violet. SCP-10004 is a localized endothermic anomaly with a structural "will" toward catastrophic thermal collapse. The entity continuously generates an micro-gravitational pull that draws atmospheric moisture toward itself. However, unlike a normal growing glacier, SCP-10004 does not expand in physical volume; instead, it compresses the absorbed matter into its core, exponentially increasing its internal pressure and potential kinetic energy.
