DOCUMENT CODE: SC-ANT/0924
SUBJECT: The Discovery of the Opposite Universe and Related Anomalies
CLASSIFICATION: TOP SECRET - EYES ONLY
DATE: [REDACTED]
LOCATION: [REDACTED] University, South Scotland
INVESTIGATION LEAD: Dr. Samuel Kerr
INVOLVED PARTIES: Mark J. Davies, Sophie K. Monroe, Liam O. Gray (Students)
OPERATIONAL OVERSIGHT: [REDACTED] Government Agency
SUMMARY:
On [REDACTED], a group of postgraduate students at [REDACTED] University, South Scotland, made a ground-breaking discovery while conducting advanced research on antimatter. The discovery, subsequently classified as a Level 5 anomaly, pertains to the existence of a parallel dimension now termed "The Opposite Universe". This dimension is composed entirely of antimatter, presenting a direct and unprecedented threat to our universe.
The students, under the supervision of Dr. Samuel Kerr, were experimenting with controlled particle collisions in an effort to study the theoretical behavior of antimatter. The project, which initially operated under minimal funding and media attention, rapidly escalated when a temporary rift was created between our universe and an antimatter-based counterpart.
The following report details the event and its catastrophic outcomes, resulting in the deaths of three key individuals and the subsequent covert government intervention.
EVENT DESCRIPTION:
At approximately 0200 hours, the experimental apparatus (referred to by the students as "The Mirror Gate") successfully generated a controlled spatial distortion, forming a gateway to what has been confirmed as the Opposite Universe.
During the event, visual contact was made with humanoid figures—later identified as Antimatter Entities (AEs)—whose physical properties are diametrically opposed to matter in our universe. Upon interaction, any contact with these entities resulted in immediate disintegration of the surrounding environment at the subatomic level.
Initial observations recorded by the students indicated that these entities mirrored their appearance, behavior, and movement patterns in a disturbing, reversed fashion. It is critical to note that these AEs demonstrated immediate hostility, seeking physical contact with the students.
Key Incident Timeline:
0210 hours – First AE entity crosses the rift. Immediate disintegration of nearby materials occurs upon contact.0215 hours – Subject Liam O. Gray makes physical contact with an AE and is erased. His body ceased to exist within 0.02 seconds of contact.0217 hours – Subject Sophie K. Monroe engages her counterpart. AE makes contact with her shoulder, resulting in instantaneous annihilation.0219 hours – Subject Mark J. Davies initiates a recording on a personal device before being cornered by his AE counterpart.
A tactical government unit arrived on-site at 0224 hours, neutralizing the portal via an immediate power shutdown. Despite this, multiple AEs had already crossed into our universe. The unit successfully secured the area and contained the breach; however, one AE remained unaccounted for.

[Mark J. Davies Recording]

"They came through. They're made of antimatter—everything they touch disappears. Liam's gone. Sophie too. If anyone finds this, shut it down—don't open the rift again. They... they aren't just us. They want our world. They want—"

POST-EVENT ACTIONS:
Suppression of Public Information:
The university's research article and any media exposure were immediately erased. All personnel directly involved with the project have been detained or eliminated to prevent the spread of classified information.
Containment Protocols:
The facility where the experiment took place has been sealed and deemed off-limits. A temporary electromagnetic shield has been erected around the site to prevent further breaches.
Government Intervention:
Research into the Opposite Universe has continued under government supervision. Controlled experiments using particle accelerators similar to those employed by the students have shown that the rift can be reopened, though at considerable risk. The objective of these experiments remains under strict confidentiality.
ANOMALY STATUS:
As of [REDACTED], it has been confirmed that one Antimatter Entity remains active within our universe. The whereabouts of this entity are unknown. Surveillance footage indicates abnormal magnetic disturbances in a 30-kilometer radius surrounding the university, suggesting the AE may be attempting to reestablish contact with its origin point.
The Opposite Universe itself appears to operate under inverted physical laws, where antimatter thrives and matter, as we know it, cannot exist. Contact with this universe poses an existential risk to our reality. Continued research is being conducted, though under extreme caution, to ensure no further breaches occur.
CONCLUSION:
This document is to remain confidential under all circumstances. Any and all breaches of this information will be dealt with under the highest authority of the government.
The Opposite Universe poses an unparalleled threat to the stability of our own dimension. Further experimentation is not recommended, though ongoing projects within restricted sectors suggest continued research.
If containment fails, the consequences may be catastrophic, with the potential for mass-scale annihilation of all matter in our universe.
Potential Sequel Protocol: In the event of continued anomalies, including further breaches, see PROJECT OPPOSITE-II for contingency planning.
