Item #: SCP-021 Object Class: Euclid   Special Containment Procedures: SCP-021 is to be kept covered by a blanket at all times, except during testing or while communicating with the ponies on the opposite side of SCP-021. Periodic checks on the other Foundation should be made to ensure they're doing good. Description: SCP-021 SCP-021 is a ring of wood held up by a stand also made of wood. The wooden ring holds a portal to a parallel universe. The portal has so far proven to be impossible to pass through. The portal appears to lead to the other universe's Foundation, in which appear to exist all the same ponysonnel as are in our universe. Both Foundations have tried an equal number of times to pass through SCP-021, each time being unable to do so because of the other universe's attempts to breach the portal. It is unknown at this time wether this is due to the other universe secretly trying to prevent us from getting into their universe, or due to poor coordination between both sides. Attempts to communicate with the other Foundation were at first difficult, as it seems that sound does not pass through the portal. Researchers later attempted to use writing to communicate, which appeared to have worked, with the other Foundation writing back in a strange language. Anypony who stands infront of SCP-021 will be met by their parallel counterpart also looking into SCP-021. Addendum 021-1: Foundation researchers have managed to decode the parallel Foundation's language. It appears to be Equish written backwards. It is unknown at this time what caused their writing system to be a reversed form of ours.
