Peter Robbins | Wilhelm Reich, Orgone Energy, & UFOs
James McDonald, Institute of Atmospheric Physics and UFO Advocacy
While Reich was working in Tucson, the Institute of Atmospheric Physics was founded nearby under the direction of Lou Douglas, a friend of President Eisenhower. Dr. James McDonald, a brilliant physicist at the institute, later became a leading advocate for the scientific study of UFOs. McDonald faced severe professional ridicule and congressional pressure for his views, which Robbins suggests contributed to his tragic suicide years later.
