What if that was a force field reading?

Someone left a sign in a raided field reading, "One of these melons is poisoned."

"What is the tachyon field reading now?"

Except that obviously something terrible happened, and the vector and the tachyon field readings match.

The sensors would constantly broadcast information, which would be compiled with satellite observations and global electromagnetic field readings.

She looked back at Zee, who was taking field readings off the damping mesh she had wired to a test bench.

Nearly half the schools were on Long Island, and of those, the Woodmere Middle School was among the five with the highest electromagnetic field readings.

"The magnetic field readings they're taking will tell us more about Mars's geological history, and the more we know about what originally shaped the surface, the more we can figure out whether conditions existed to create life," he said.

"The thing is, I decided to open up the control console, just to take a look, you know, give her a once-over, scan the phase-transition coils and the like- and at the very highest tricorder setting for field readings, I picked up what could be evidence of a directed magnetic pulse."
