While mapping magnetic-field readings at the west end of the ranch, NIDS personnel reportedly encountered a powerful localized musky odor and subjective sense of being watched, with no visible source identified.
Claims are displayed with the source wording, locator, relationship and verification state. Competing claims remain separate rather than being averaged into a single answer.
“On April 3, while NIDS personnel mapped magnetic-field readings at the western end, they reportedly encountered a strong musky odor and a feeling of being watched; the odor gradually dissipated with no visible source.”
“The chapter interprets the episode as involving a powerful magnetic field, but it does not provide contemporaneous numeric field measurements from this event.”
“The source says similar localized odors recurred unpredictably, including inside the command center, and that dogs were subsequently used as biosensors because their behavior appeared more sensitive to the episodes.”
