The paired disappearance: Monica Reza vanishes June 22 2025 (NASA JPL aerospace engineer, Mondaloy super-alloy co-creator). Her AFRL funder William Neil McCasland vanishes Feb 27 2026 (former AFRL Commander, Wright-Patterson). Eight months separate the disappearances; the funding relationship is documented.
Mondaloy is a nickel-based super-alloy designed to withstand extreme rocket-engine combustion temperatures, enabling next-generation reusable rocket propulsion + hypersonic vehicles. It is dual-use hardware at the Topic-Correlation Signature #1 apex.
McCasland's 2016 Podesta-email linkage (UAP disclosure architecture via Tom DeLonge intermediary) places him inside the sanctioned-limit-pusher category pre-disappearance. His disappearance suggests the limit-pusher role was terminated.
Watch signal (per Report #74): any newly minted patents in nickel-based super-alloys or plasma fusion that emerge post-Reza/Loureiro removals = signal that proprietary research has been successfully subsumed into the black sector. This is testable. Ticker candidate.
