China Lake, Nellis, Edward’s, Whidbey, are these bases part of the network of bases involved in the reverse engineering project?

All of the bases tied to the Manhattan project. It seems to me like Operation Paperclip was really about acquiring whatever craft the Nazis found (Grusch mentioned Italy). The nuclear program appears to be reverse engineered technology. This tech was then shared with Bell Labs originally where fiber optic cables among many many other inventions we haven’t heard of were create.

I heard from someone who knew someone that was a top RnD scientist at Bell Labs for 30-40 years before dying that they had invented cell phones and engines the size of the head of a pin back in the 70s.

I don’t think this is about Italy or the nuclear bomb. This is about Antarctica.

Seems to me like all of these topics are tied together.

So Bell Labs originally got the tech and invent a lot of our network technology. The nuclear program was a reverse engineering project and so is the large hadron collider.

What am I missing?
