In the 1920s and 30s, space travel seemed like something only possible in science fiction. But there were those who believed, who pushed, and who worked to establish the foundation of rocketry. One of those men scandalized the industry, working as a self-taught chemist by day, and an occultist by night.

Today, we’re diving into the conspiracies behind the untimely death of JPL co-founder, Jack Parsons.
