FBI looks into dead or missing scientists tied to NASA, Blue Origin, SpaceX

A lot of people are saying it’s disconnected, but even if it was, if a string of your country’s top rocket experts started disappearing, you wouldn’t just sit idly by

This appears to be for investigating how many scientist have left the US sponsored by state powers. But this also seems like bad communication on the FBI and perhaps poor publishing.

I think there is some confusion that there are more people going missing and dying in the sector while not outlining that there are more people going missing AND dying.

Or I'm just completely wrong, the only reason why I am making such assumptions because there is more information about this in the ASML case where a whisleblower leaked that china has poached ASML engineers and have given them new identities to work in chip manufacturing sector in china.

Odd, I saw this bubble up on social media this week as a tinfoil hat curiosity. I don't know what's real anymore.

Once I saw “James Comer” I knew I could ignore this.

I don't have the link but someone estimated the number of scientists working in the defense field (it's a lot) and the number of deaths per year you'd expect (over 100). There's probably nothing here. It probably doesn't hurt to have the FBI take a second look at any death of somebody who has a security clearance or is working on export-controlled tech, but OTOH that might be a lot of work.

The article doesn't seem to reveal the source of its information about these alleged disappearances. Is it the letters from the members of Congress?

Also, what interest would a foreign power have in planetary defense against asteroids? Is there some dual-use technology in that?

Something about ufo conspiracy theories.

Turns out scientists die too?

How many of the disappearances were defections?

Doesn't seem connected, but makes a nice film. I think ignorance is bliss and due to the current climate, many people checking out...
