As anticommunist unease in the United States mounted, the FBI confronted Tsien in 1950 with a U.S. Communist Party document from 1938 that listed him as a member.

Must have been that pesky Joe McCarthy guy again! Maybe with a splash of J. Edgar Hoover or Richard Nixon. Those guys just never understood the difference between a rocket scientist and an agrarian reformer.

Yeah, I read about this long ago. In fact, I heard (not sure if true) that his story is alluded to in James Clavell's 'Noble House', though the circumstances for his leaving the US is not the same.
