Person
Eric Henry Wang
Eric Henry Wang was director of special studies at the Wright Air Development Center, and he appears in that role in the Upshot-Knothole atomic-test documents of 1953. Arthur Stansel named him as the technical lead at the Kingman recovery. Ufology lore, repeated by UAP Gerb, has him leading reverse engineering of recovered craft and working with Viktor Schauberger; that part is unsourced.
On the record
- Director of special studies (WADC) in the Upshot-Knothole documents.
Open questions
- Is there any record of the Schauberger link?
