Heavy Meddle

Conspiracy web sites discovered an old recorded phone call between a NASA scientist and a conspiracy theorist, and concluded the agency was dosing Americans with lithium.

Use of lithium as a chemical propellant and research agent by NASA was not novel or secretive — the rudimentary information on NASA’s web site was first published in 1958. Conspiracy theorists latched on to the use of the word “lithium” and extrapolated that it was used by NASA to surreptitiously drug the populace.

NASA openly “admitted” to using lithium in a manner widely expected of that element, but use of the word “admitted” also implied disclosure by accident or under duress.

The practice was well documented both by NASA and outside research, and bore no hallmarks of a long-running plot to surreptitiously drug Americans under the guise of rocket launches.
