I read the 38 page paper and it was a good summary of the past and a good proposal for the future. https://www.worldscientific.com/doi/10.1142/S2251171723400068 I hope that they can get this project off the ground and implemented as described in the paper. Of interest was the selection of field instruments proposed and why. Interesting that they are proposing to use the Infiltec INFRA20 for infrasound detection. We discussed this instrument in previous posts. For magnetometers, I have the same concerns that they disclose about multiple possible sources (natural and manmade) for sudden detected changes in magnetic field. Need to establish a clear baseline of what is considered normal deviations. See extract below: "The choice of the GP magnetometers is guided by the goal of reliably recording magnetic field perturbations that are associated with known and unknown sources at the instrument site. This is not trivial considering that the magnetometers will be collecting measurements in the field, throughout the year, at locations that will be magnetically noisy, and in the presence of geomagnetic field variations. Examples of known physical sources include: the ionospheric solar quiet currents, which are re[1]sponsible for the diurnal variation of the geomagnetic field in the order of tens of nT; the magnetospheric ring current during geomagnetically quiet times, which generates a signal of few nT up to few tens of nT; and geomagnetic storms, which can create perturbations of several hundreds of nT. Expected magnetic perturbations from human-made sources include signals from power lines (on the order of few nT to few tens of nT within 50 m distance, Garrido et al. (2003)), electric railways (on the order of 10 nT at few kilometers distance; Ding et al. (2021); Jankowski & Sucksdorff (1996)), airliners (of order a few nT at 100 m distance) and motor vehicles like cars and trucks (of order a few nT within hundreds of meters) (Lenz & Edelstein, 2006; Chulliat et al., 2009)."

A very valid point. My stomping grounds are prone to lots of dead fall, and high winds a good part of the year, so you could build a crappy cabin out there with what's there on the ground. Pays to be discerning. Generally it has to be really unusual for me to look past a point. It does happen on occasion though.

My ex-wife moved to Columbia, MO and now lives in a basement apartment with her alcoholic husband and sells essential oils... Oh, you said "squatchy" things to do and not "sketchy" things to do. Never mind.

There was a documentary on this many years ago: "Earth Girls Are Easy". Sumerian reliefs show a different view with 'Inanna' who was recorded as a female deity with a sky-ship. The silvery white metal house was used to collect and harvest people. Her handlers accused her of excessive zug-zug with earth men. Were earthmen easy? Few of us can translate Sumerian and interpretations can evolve into pseudo history. Assuming the aliens came from a home world with similar oxygen / atmospheric gases, gravity, sunlight, magnetism, ionosphere, bacteria and viruses is a huge stretch. My same comment for current ET presence. Treading water in the 'artificial mutation' by aliens pool is risky.

@Incorrigible1, you're being - incorrigible

You'd be in the neighborhood for invisible sasquatch in treetops. OK, I'm being facetious. I hope you hear some better offers. Safe travels!

Just checked and it reached the goal with less than 24 hours to go. Fan freaking tastic.

I hope you know I was completely joking on "calling you out". I'm not in a position to do that to 90% of the people here and it's not like you're taking pictures of leaves or trying to gain a following by manipulating people by saying you are so special you can talk to groups of Sasquatches across the country telepathically. You also don't see Sasquatch in every single thing you find while you're outdoors.

How? Most witnesses are "missing".
