“The Babylon Working” would be a great title for the movie.

His involvement in JPL is hugely overstated I think. JPL was established in ‘39 and Parsons was fired in ‘43. The idea that he was capable of developing equivalent technologies for the Russians let alone knew any usable “secrets” is pretty laughable. Interesting vid but conspiratorial clickbait in the end.
