The first half of the video pretty well demonstrates how alien the Golden Disk might be to other life that finds it. It's a noble attempt by humanity, but there's no guarantee that all - if any - of it will be understood.

[delphitek]

I love this one. It's an alien's version of the voyager golden record.

So, it sounds as if SCP-1947 may or may not function as a "sensor network" for an unknown tech advanced civilization. The speculation that multiple 1947-Ls are scattered around the galaxy, transmitting a code that's relatively easy to find, mixed with the primary object SCP-1947 openly transmitting, appearing to give specific instructions and directions to use an Ultraviolet laser on the object.. Point to this being a "sensor network" possibly being used to point out intelligent life for said unknown alien civilization who are able to codebreak.

This SCP reminds me a lot of the Fungal Network anomaly players can use or dispose of in Stellaris, while not exactly the same, sort of similar. The anomaly revolved around discovering a species of extraterrestrial fungus on a planet, the fungas appears to transmit and receive information from all of its own species, even if it's on another planet. Making a sensor network. It's later discovered this fungal network is sending information to a specific constellation of stars across the void of space. Implying this fungal network is the creation of an Alien civilization to get eyes on the universe. potentially sending these fungal spores to countless planets to different galaxies across the void of space, and that there is evidence that someone is listening.

I like this one a lot. There's no scary monster or extradimensional trap: just an implication, that you slowly get more and more details about to build up the horryfying realisation. Definitely reminiscent of some of the classics that made the genre great.

[Sinfulpapaya]

This is so cool, a civilization sends probes randomly in space, each containing a codified message that makes it seem so the makers want to make contact with whoever finds them, but actually none of the information about them is true, and you just activated the probe, they now know you are an intelligent species and where you are...
Cool af concept with reference to actual messages we sent in to space and a touch of dark forest theory, i love it

[swaghettimemeballs]

I love entries like these, that are just really complex explanations of what is basically just an "ayy lmao" transponder.
Saying "It's an alien spy device" wouldn't have made for a good story, but that's basically all it was, and just somehow the writing still makes it interesting.
My compliments to whoever wrote this, this was fun and interesting.

[glitch_the_dragon]

I am begging on my hands and knees for you to make another 45 minute video

Edit: I hope one day he does 3989, as it's the first SCP I ever read, and it's what got me into the foundation stuff

[FreemanicParacusia]

I love SCPs that are just weird things or locations and not world-ending Keters.

[derekfarmer]

Me and my wife have seen ALMOST all the videos on this channel and we would LOVE to see you do your "Extra Credit" bit on more of your videos. We love your videos and really hope you'd consider adding those in, it was a really great idea! ❤

[williamchamberlain]

Funny if he got the wrong prime number(s), and properly arranged the message really says "Shop at Dave's for HUUUGE discounts", and the radio emissions are just transmitting all of humanity's credit card details to an interstellar dropshipper.

[ianboswell]

This is cool that starts off like alien Voyager but then becomes slightly more sinister when it's revealed that there are multiple copies with different star charts and diagrams of the species meaning that they are broadcasting misleading info save for the means by which to trigger it to send a signal back. Basically we fell for the trap. And we still have no clue who is actually receiving the signal. I also like the unsolved mystery of the white scattered dot pattern like they're tryingI say something obvious like a QR code or bar code or some fundamental aspect of life in the universe involving patterns that we just aren't privy to understanding. Or maybe they're just dumb aliens assuming we'd get it. Like our including DNA helixes on Voyager might not make any sense to a life form that doesn't have DNA like our own.

[DeadBaron]

Wait the researcher was familiar with frequencies and his name was -hertz? Really, author?!😂

[Kiever_Sloane]

Ok this is the ideal SCP. Creepy and unexplained. But also very grounded. And its possible threat left undefined

[wintericeuk]

Hmm, my first thought with this one is it's a boobytrap in a Dark Forest situation. You seed the probes with misleading information that's released via the microwave pulses that points to a dummy location and if that location goes "dark" then you have a "silent hunter" civilisation with the capacity to destroy a star (a major threat to your civilisation's longevity in a Dark Forest situation). By using different locations for each probe they can also effectively get a fuzzy location for the source of the hunter.

You also have a trap for the curious species which switches it into an active mode that aims it at a disposable location where you have a listening post or is home to a known hostile species. This means you can locate the source and also potentially get another species to function as your hatchetman to destroy the "careless" species that set off the trap.

Honestly, if this is a Dark Forest scenario then I'd argue that this is an active Keter situation but one who's time to criticality will be measures in thousands of years.

[williampiniarski]

Goal is pretty clear - if a civilization solves the initial puzzles and points a laser at that thing, that civilization just gave itself away and the box tells its host planet “we’ve got a live one here”. Pretty ingenious. No need to explore the galaxy yourself for intelligent life when intelligent life will give itself away.

Scorpius prob isn’t the ultimate destination, but a relay station, so no one knows where the signals really go.

Dark Forest mechanism? Perhaps.

[-Eternal-Damnation-]

Its like an alien version of the the "Arecibo Message".

[mischake]

This comes at such a perfect time
I worked my ass off my back is broke, and i just wanna shower and then sit... and nothing else for the rest of the evening

[blackinferno]

nothing like a good old "alien probe with a radio and we dont know who or wtf they are-- HIDE IT" story

[paigey-poo]

The next logical conclusion is to use the “random array” pictures together to try and figure out a coded image, right?
I wish these things got updates lmao

[KenjiIchijou]

It's another race's Voyager!

Edit after finishing video: Oh no, that's disconcerting.
