Related quests to join the Blades, stop the gangs from attacking Adytum, and rescue Zimmerman's son (Jason, not Josh) from the Rippers.

Glow

“Behind one of the broken goo-filled suspension tanks was a body of a big-headed alien. Near that was a desk with a note on it. The note had about every third letter taken out, but if you puzzled out what it said, you could figure out that it was an evacuation notice, signed by Dana Scully.”— Fallout Bible 9

The body has this description "This body might be some kind of genetic experiment."

Other:

• GLOWCAGE.MSG - "It appears as though this cage contained lab animals for for testing. Somehow, the bars have been torn off."
