Plus they apparently had ties to the Fifth Church, so that's another issue. It certainly shouldn't have been within the capability of four beatniks to make something like this on their own without even alerting anyone. Second is that the bus contains advanced technology which shouldn't have been possible in the 1950s, when all evidence points to it having been launched, and some of which we still don't fully understand. First of all is that there are very few circumstances by which a Volkswagen Bus would end up in space, let alone on a trajectory that would lead toward Alpha Centauri, and most plausible scenarios are the sort of thing you would expect to be in the news, not something we'd only find out about once astronomers found the thing in space.

The spaceship bus is anomalous because the Foundation have no idea what the people who modified it did to it, how they managed to launch it, how they managed to survive in it for as long as they did, and how they managed to do all of this while being beatnik dropouts in the 1950s. There are, to date, no known methods of converting an otherwise ordinary Volkswagen to enable it to achieve orbit and enable its passengers to survive in the vacuum without modifying it to the point where it is essentially not a Volkswagen anymore, and there certainly weren't any such methods in the 1950s. A 1958 Volkswagen bus, however, is not any of those things by any stretch of the imagination. It's not anomalous to encounter a space shuttle in space because, well, that's where you'd expect to find one. It's designed, built and used for that very purpose. A space shuttle is supposed to fly in space.It was likely made from anomalous materials or science.The Foundation doesn't only secure and protect the human race's continued existence, they also protect the human perception of what the world is, i.One could argue that the microbus being launched in 1958 with technology based on theories not developed until many decades after the launch date is what makes it anomalous.To me, it seems like classifying a space shuttle as an SCP.How the hell is a spaceship bus not anomalous?.That said, what exactly IS its anomalous property? It's just sad as hell, but nothing about it is that odd (other than it being a space bus). Things like SCP-1958 are articles which only seem to be there for tear jerker or nightmare fuel effects.Also, as the GOC tends to show, "destroying" a SCP typically makes the thing even more dangerous.They try to destroy stuff with conventional weapons first, see the Anamolous Items log for all the harmless things destroyed by the foundation like the Slow-motion Mouse or Steve Jobs' Horcrux.And mind you, they have a history of making things worse by trying to destroy them.That's the Global Occult Coalition's job. They don't destroy, destroy, and destroy. Couldn't they just feed the really dangerous ones to 682?."Okay, so basically you managed to kill every single person on the site because you tried some weird test which was based around killing something we don't want dead by making a highly dangerous skip breach containment? Yeah, you're fired," is my guess as to why nobody's tried it.If it's the former, then the question is still up in the air. Is its invincibility an anomalous property, or are its bones just really durable? If it's the latter, 053's effect would certainly kill it. It really depends on how 096 actually works.Maybe they don't WANT to know what would happen. Besides, this proposed experiment becomes a problem when you realize that 096 and 053 are basically both a Hand Wave (096 can become invincible, 053 can cause death in anything) so. Maybe they don't want to risk another breach.Why hasn't anyone tried showing a picture of 096 to 053?.Attempting to make an SCP of a character or object from a work of fiction you don't own will get your article deleted with no grace period for plagiarism. Ponies are one of several subjects not allowed in the main site19 chat because they reliably derail the conversation away from SCP stuff.Three notable exceptions now: A wheelchair that turns its user into Charles Xavier and the foundation into his school of superheroes, the cast of Stranger Things, and the Kool-Aid Man.SCP derived from pop culture are strongly frowned upon.Also, creating an SCP that's obviously something from another show is generally frowned upon.Very defensive fandom, very offensive hatedom.
