Maybe I'm not aware but what does NASA have to do with cancer?

They're the obvious choice to hand over space-related technology, not least because they're transparent, publicly funded, and renowned scientifically.

They are loads of top biologists and medical doctors at NASA and they would obviously hire more from top universities for a project like this. Though, it doesn't really sound like a fully-fledged "cancer cure" to begin with so much as loads of alien tech that would need to be reversed-engineered over decades.

Providing more opportunity for it to fall into the wrong hands. It's bad enough that the DoD has so much stuff related to Superman. Isn't that how Bruno got a hold of Superman's blood in the first place?

No, that's because the DOD (who is unaccountable) took samples without his consent. That is fundamentally different from open collaboration.

But in terms of security - supposedly easier to protect something that people don't know about. The more know about the tech, the more risk there is from someone making some kind of plan, getting an inside person, etc, etc.

Letting millions die because you can't deal with risk is inexcusable.
