Speculation Around a Series of Incidents Involving Scientists After Trump's UFO Disclosure Directive
To the point
There’s speculation of a pattern linking scientists in nuclear, exoplanet, and aerospace work after a February 2026 Trump post about releasing files on aliens, but by mid-March there weren’t major disclosures and investigations point to separate personal, criminal, or unexplained circumstances rather than a coordinated plot, involving Retired Maj. Gen. William Neil McCasland, MIT’s Nuno F. Loureiro, astrophysicist Carl Grillmair, Jason Thomas, and Monica Reza, with cases still under review and no solid ties to UFOs or national security.
