The Vanishing Point
Ten scientists and science-linked workers have gone missing or died since 2023. New UFO files are landing in public view. No evidence proves the stories are connected. That may be why America cannot stop looking.
The strangest thing in the latest UFO story may not be in the sky.
It may be the people no longer here to answer questions.
A retired Air Force major general disappears from his Albuquerque home. A materials-processing scientist connected to NASA’s Jet Propulsion Laboratory vanishes while hiking in California. Other scientists, researchers, engineers, and science-linked workers tied in varying degrees to nuclear, aerospace, space, pharmaceutical, defense, or sensitive research institutions are found dead or remain missing.
Their names begin circulating online.
Their work histories are arranged into patterns.
Their disappearances and deaths are pulled toward the same dark center.
Then the UFO files arrive.
Spinning discs. Glowing orbs. A red sphere with a white center like a small sun. A plasma-like object over a pond. A shimmering object over Colorado Springs that witnesses described, with almost embarrassing human plainness, as potato-shaped.
