Ironically: *JASON* is an independent group of scientists which advises the United States government<https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Federal_government_of_the_United_States> on matters of science and technology. *The group was first created as a way to get a younger generation of scientists*—that is, not the older Los Alamos<https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Los_Alamos_National_Laboratory> and MIT Radiation Laboratory<https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Radiation_Laboratory> alumni—involved in advising the government. It was established in 1960 and has somewhere between 30 and 60 members.
