[[File:Mansfield-Amendment-1969-Cover.jpg|thumb|Implementation Of 1970 Defense Procurement Authorization Act Requiring Relationship Of Research To Specific Military Functions (Original Document)]]


From 1945 to 1969, the U.S. Department of Defense (DoD) served as a primary sponsor of unrestricted basic research in universities, particularly in physics, mathematics, materials science, and computer science. Agencies such as the Advanced Research Projects Agency (ARPA, established 1958), the Office of Naval Research (ONR), the Air Force Office of Scientific Research (AFOSR), and the Army Research Office provided long-term funding with minimal requirements for immediate applicability. This support enabled high-risk, curiosity-driven work, including developments in quantum field theory, general relativity, and early computing. Historians of science, such as Daniel Kevles and Paul Forman, have described this period as one of exceptional productivity in fundamental physics, supported by annual DoD basic research obligations that reached hundreds of millions of dollars (in then-year terms).
'''[https://www.gao.gov/assets/b-167034-d12080.pdf The Mansfield Amendment]''' (Section 203 of Public Law 91-121, enacted November 1969 and effective for FY1970) required that DoD-funded research demonstrate "a direct and apparent relationship to a specific military function or operation." This provision effectively prohibited support for purely basic research without clear, short-term military relevance. Subsequent legislation softened some restrictions, but the core change persisted.
== Background and purpose ==
In the late 1960s, during the Vietnam War era, widespread anti-war sentiment on American university campuses led to criticism of the military's deep involvement in funding academic research. The DoD, particularly through the Advanced Research Projects Agency (ARPA, later DARPA), had become a major sponsor of broad scientific work in fields such as computer science, materials science, and behavioral sciences that often had no clear military purpose.
Senator [[Mike Mansfield]] (D-Montana), the Senate Majority Leader, argued that funds appropriated for national defense should not be used to subsidize general scientific inquiry, a role that properly belonged to civilian agencies such as the [[National Science Foundation]] (NSF). The amendment was intended to curb perceived military overreach into academia and to ensure that defense appropriations were spent only on projects with direct military relevance.
== Immediate, Measurable Consequences (1969–1975) ==
* DoD basic research obligations in physics and related fields flat-lined or declined in real terms while total federal R&D grew. NSF data (constant dollars) show DoD basic research peaked mid-1960s (~$400–500 million current dollars for all basic, with physics/math a major share) and then stagnated or fell ~25–30% in real terms by mid-1970s, even as NSF's basic research budget doubled.
* The entire ARPA Materials Research Laboratories (MRLs/IDLs) program — ~$30–40 million annually across 12 elite universities — was transferred to NSF in 1971–1972 because DoD could no longer legally fund it.
* University physics departments that had been 70–90% DoD-funded in gravity, field theory, and relativity suddenly lost that support. The "Golden Age of General Relativity" — explicitly dated by historians (Jean Eisenstaedt, Clifford Will, Kip Thorne, JĂŒrgen Renn) as ~1955–1973/75 — ended exactly on the Mansfield timeline. The field went from explosive growth (new exact solutions, global methods, astrophysical applications, dozens of active groups) to near-dormancy outside a few astrophysics niches.
Some of the money moved to the [[National Science Foundation (NSF)|National Science Foundation]], but the rules changed completely:
* Pre-Mansfield (DoD/ARPA): Program managers (e.g., Jack Ruina, Eberhardt Rechtin, Stephen Lukasik) could fund brilliant iconoclasts for decades on hunch alone. No peer review panels, no consensus requirement, no short-term deliverables.
* Post-Mansfield (NSF): [[Peer Review|"Peer Review"]] (already strengthening since 1965), requirement for "sound preliminary data," punishment of paradigm deviation, obsession with citation counts and "safe" incrementalism.
The result was immediate risk-aversion. Proposals that might discover fundamentally new ideas, overturn entrenched views or disrupt preexisting academic expectations became un-fundable because they couldn't guarantee results in 3 years or satisfy reviewers wedded to existing paradigms.
== The Resulting Stagnation ==
* Particle physics: The last major addition to the Standard Model Lagrangian that was not already anticipated in the 1960s was the charm quark (November Revolution, 1974) — arguably the last gasp before full stagnation set in. Since 1973/74, zero new fundamental particles or forces have been discovered beyond the 1970s roadmap. The Higgs (2012) and top quark (1995) were predicted; nothing unexpected has appeared.
* Theoretical physics: [[Quantum Gravity]], particularly the [[String Theory]] program (promising unification in 1984) has dominated for 40+ years and produced zero testable predictions. Every other approach is starved. [[String Theory]] was claimed for decades to be [[The Only Game in Town (TOGIT)]]. In addition to Eric Weinstein, [[Sabine Hossenfelder]], [[Peter Woit]], [[Lee Smolin]], and others document that the field has been in crisis since the 1970s — i.e., the Mansfield era.
* The [[The Golden Age of General Relativity]] ended abruptly. The community that had been aggressively pursuing unified field theories, alternative gravities, and (quietly) propulsion-relevant modifications simply disappeared from open literature after 1973–1975.
== Where Did the Top Physicists Actually Go? ==
Physicists did not retire or die en masse following the Mansfield Amendment. Many went to Wall Street, starting in the late 1970s and exploding in the 1980s. Fischer Black (Black-Scholes) hired physicists in the 1970s; Jim Simons founded Renaissance Technologies in 1982 explicitly to hire pure physicists and mathematicians who could no longer get academic funding. By the 1990s, quantitative finance was draining elite talent that previously would have gone into fundamental theory.
Others went into classified programs — or simply stopped publishing in the open. The timing is too precise to be pure coincidence: the gravity/propulsion community (Witten pùre, DeWitt, Weber, Forward, etc.) vanishes from public view right as Mansfield.
== Interpretation ==
The timing and scope of these changes suggest that the Mansfield Amendment, combined with subsequent policies (e.g., the [[Eilberg Amendment (1976)|1976 Eilberg Amendment]], the [[Bayh-Dole Act (1980)|1980 Bayh-Dole Act]] enabling patenting of federally funded research, [[IMMACT90]], and the [[SSC Cancelation (1993)|1993 Superconducting Super Collider cancellation]]), restructured incentives in academic science, turning universities into patent factories dependent on cheap foreign labor, killing mandatory retirement so risk-averse elders could block new ideas, and ensuring no new big-science instrument would ever again threaten the controlled stagnation. The result has been a prolonged period — now over 50 years — of limited fundamental breakthroughs in the fields most directly affected by the 1969–1973 funding restrictions, despite growth in overall R&D spending, computational resources, and the global scientific workforce.
This pattern indicates a transition from a system tolerant of high-variance, exploratory research from independent, secure scientists with true [[Academic Freedom]] to one favoring reproducible, consensus-driven advances from docile, pliant and [[The Precariat|precarious]] STEM labor — a shift initiated decisively by the Mansfield Amendment's redefinition of permissible military support for basic science.

In February of 2023, @joerogan invited me for four hours onto the world's largest English Language program (episode #1945) to describe in detail the mystery of potential US Government involvement in UFOs and Post-Einsteinian physics during the mysterious "Golden Age of General Relativity". It has been seen and discussed by millions as expected. I was thus eager to see how thorough this report would be by combing it for  search strings raised in my research.

CONCLUSION: This report purports to have studied the questions raised surrounding UFO/UAP related research of the US federal Government. It, in fact, appears to have studied a carefully chosen  SUBSET of the claims selected from among those which appear to have mass appeal to the so-called "UFO Community." It completely, or nearly completely, avoided reporting on all questions surrounding issues which have been raised in serious research and by PhD level researchers who have raised scientific questions in this area. This continues the pattern of using PhD level government scientists who appear to avoid the actual research questions most likely to involve sensitve Special Access Programs and Stovepiped Research which are compartmentalized by design. Whether the omissions are due to issues of avoidance, misdirection (e.g. so-called Limited Hangout strategy), ignorance or incompetance cannot be discerned from the information given.

RECOMMENDATION: It is simply not possible to treat the current AARO report as historically complete or comprehensive. To gain the public trust, the successor to AARO would have to expand and redo this analysis with input from domain professionals who are trusted by the public not to have an apparent agenda or government background (e.g. Prof. David Kaiser of MIT or Dr. Nima Arkani Hamed of IAS, Prof. Brian Keating of UCSD, Avi Loeb of Harvard) Otherwise, it is relatively easy for scientists to '''"Follow the Silence"''' in government reports to see what is *not* being addressed or discussed.

The absence of white kids is because they generally come from native English speaking families before the 1965 immigration act that have been in the US a long time. Thus they get accurate information that grueling STEM research careers are now a terrible investment due to STEM EMPLOYER practices (e.g. H-1B, illegal collusion, lobbying) and the abandonment of STEM by the Federal Government beginning with the Mansfield ammendment 50+ years ago. They will eventually almost all move from the lab bench, the blackboard and the command line to signing pieces of paper in VC shops or Private Equity or some such higher value endeavor. We in STEM are all being pushed from creating the value to capturing the value. It's awful.

|content=Full page ad in today’s WSJ taken out by leaders at @VanderbiltU and @WashU:
 
Higher Education is at a Crossroads
 
To university leadership, Board members and alumni:
 
American higher education is at a crossroads. Ideological forces in and outside of campuses have pulled too many universities away from the core purpose, principles and values that made them America's great engines of learning, innovation and discovery, and the envy of the world.
 
It is imperative that universities reaffirm and protect these core principles, strengthen their compact with the American people, and build on their unmatched capacity for teaching and innovation. They must do so not only because universities provide education that is transformative and research that improves everyday life—but also because their work is vital to American prosperity, competitiveness and national security.
 
To this end, the leadership of Vanderbilt University and Washington University in St. Louis recently took action at the board level to affirm our commitment to three indispensable principles that have long guided us:
 
-Excellence in all aspects of our institutions' work, free of political litmus tests, grounded in a commitment to institutional neutrality in words and deeds;
 
-Academic freedom and freedom of expression, to ensure unfettered inquiry, perspectives drawn from a wide range of human experience, and dialogue and debate that are free from censorship and disruption; and
 
-An environment that fosters growth and development, including a commitment to minimizing financial and other barriers that impede students' access to our institutions or that hinder their academic success.

Our private research universities are not actually purely private. They are designed to be both a cryptic soft extension of the state (e.g. national security, priming the prosperity pipeline with blue sky research, truth adjudication, etc.), which is also oppositely intended as an independent check on the state and state power in times of abuse as well. This tacit and quiet knowledge, which used to be held at the AAU and the relevant professors, has been mostly lost.

So 'overhead' or 'indirect costs' is not actually overhead at all. It is supposed to be cryptic state support based on research merit to avoid political pressure to fund 3rd tier universities at the same level as Princeton. So the whole system was designed back in the Vannevar Bush era but without leaving the esoteric knowledge with modern academicians.

It's a disaster. It was a quiet game which worked brilliantly to serve the nation and its population until lunatics started to get a foothold in the research universities.

And, despite my deep dislike of how @realchrisrufo has acted towards me, his point is spot on. If the elite U.S. universities are so confused as to think that they are truly 100% private and that they should be allowed to destroy their role of ELITE service to the nation which built them up with federal dollars, that is a moment to remind them of the "Endless Frontier" agreement.

First the USG welched on the agreement with the Mansfield Ammendment and Dole Bayh and then IMMACT90. Then the universities welched with DEI.

BOTH parties need to get back to the quiet agreement, or the whole thing will just fall apart. And the US research achipeligo is a *MAJOR* part of american greatness which we seem to be about to destroy because we can't figure out how to do this.

[And for those of you who seem to believe that quiet and tacit agreements are always bad, so that the Manhattan Project should have been academic and totally open because 'Sunlight is always the best disinfectant!!', I highly encourage you to use the comment section to complain again about elitism, gatekeeping, Fauci, experts, science, government and credentials. I get it. You can't stop to listen...or think. I totally get you. Looking forward to your vitriol. Just make sure to remind me repeatedly that markets are always right, all tax is theft, DEI is poison, and that Trump and Elon know exactly what they are doing at all times.]

Epstein cover stories, UAP cover stories, Assasination cover stories, COVID cover stories, Inflation/Money Supply cover stories, etc. That is, the organs that kept us partially free in 1975 are now used to attack our ability to think, every day of our lives.

And they would be too you too if this wasn’t made into a cheap farce. Space opera is just dumping cognitive sludge in the middle of a central scientific question. And I don’t take kindly to it.

And we let them destroy all competitors so they can take down the field of theoretical physics and die in piece pretending they were the “Only Game In Town”. Which is total pure unadulterated anti-scientific bullshit. Think about it.

But isn’t it a little much to expect a politician to not speak plainly on a podcast but use “scientifically precise” terms?
Regarding the propaganda element of all this, here’s what I believe. The level of discourse recently about UAP’s and potential alien activity is refreshing whether or not it’s murky.
The fact that we have Government officials going on record to validate that SOMETHING is out there is progress.
Compared to a decade ago where people were demonized and destroyed for even speaking out about this, I see progress.
