The Dead Scientists Story Must Not Go Away

from Based Underground · host JD Rucker

In the geometry of American defense research, three cities form the backbone of the nation's most classified aerospace programs: Southern California, where the Jet Propulsion Laboratory and Caltech's infrared processing centers anchor NASA's planetary work; Albuquerque, home to Kirtland Air Force Base and Sandia National Labs; and Dayton, Ohio, where Wright-Patterson has for decades been the nerve center of the Air Force Research Laboratory. Since July 2024, at least nine scientists, engineers, and defense-connected personnel tied to these exact nodes have died under unexplained circumstances, disappeared without a trace, or been found murdered. Congress is alarmed. The FBI is involved. And the institutions that lost these people have, in nearly every case, said as little as possible.That silence is the first thing that demands explanation.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
