A US rocket scientist vanished without a trace on a Los Angeles hike eight months before retired Air Force Gen. William McCasland disappeared under eerily similar circumstances — and the two had a close professional connection.
Monica Reza went missing on the morning of June 22, 2025, in the Angeles National Forest while hiking with two experienced companions who were exploring the popular Mount Waterman Trail, according to a Facebook page dedicated to finding her.
Volunteers and authorities searched the area for months using helicopters, radar, droves of hikers, and dogs — but have found no trace of Reza, 60, who is still considered a missing person, according to the Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Department.
Reza used the last name Jacinto in her wildly successful professional career as a material scientist at Aerojet Rocketdyne, which was funded for years by NASA and the Air Force Research Laboratory, according to SpaceNews.
Her patented nickel-based “super-alloy,” Mondaloy, brought her into the orbit of McCasland — who oversaw the Air Force group that funded research in the early 2000s into advanced materials needed for reusable space vehicles and weapons.
McCasland was material wing director at the Air Force Research Laboratory Space Vehicle Directorate, and commander of Phillips Research Site in Kirtland Air Force Base from 2001 to 2004, which would directly pertain to Reza’s research, according to his official Air Force biography.
“Because Mondaloy is a family of alloys, I worked with the Air Force to scale up production, look at different processing methods and get the material ready for insertion into a rocket engine,” she told SpaceNews in a 2017 profile.
Aerojet Rocketdyne “achieved a major milestone” in rocket engine technologies in 2016 based on Reza’s advancement, according to an Air Force press release.

They’ve entered the realm of super secrecy for land-based special aeronautics Project Engineers working for the USSF somewhere in Nevada...or Greenland. It’s fun to speculate!
Maybe aliens took them away for safe keeping...
(A US rocket scientist vanished)
This shouldn’t be Brain Surgery...
Fox Mulder, please pick up the White Courtesy Phone ☎️
Oops make that the Red Courtesy Phone ☎️
Max Fennig is on Line #1
Kind of on topic, but did you know that the space scenes on Star Trek were actually filmed on Earth to save money.
Bigfoot got him
Isn’t this the beginning of a 50’s sci fi movie like Earth vs the Fllying Saucers
I dont think the link is UFOs. I think another scientist on the East coast disappeared also. It’s China or Russia .
My guess... They are on that island where Elvis, Kennedy and Hitler are all hanging out.
Any evidence of excessive second hand smoke?
That CSM guy was always up to something.
Would agree....China or Russia grabbed the two. I would imagine there’s a list of twenty-odd people with value...to be eventually grabbed.
Yep. exactly. They were taken by someone. Just like we take people.
Scottie beamed him out. Pretty obvious.
