Theodore von Kármán

Theodore von Kármán, born Szőllőskislaki Kármán Tódor, (May 11, 1881 – May 7, 1963) was a Hungarian-American aerospace engineer and physicist.

In 1952, Von Kármán hired Thomas Sean Morgan to find out about the activities of Jack Parsons, his former Aerojet co-founder. On June 17, 1952, Morgan met with Von Kármán and revealed that Parsons was planning to fly to Mexico. Von Kármán hurriedly made a phone call to Parsons, though after the call wasn't answered, he sent Morgan himself to go to Parsons' lab and warn him off.
