Shower thought:
JFK, Reagan and Trump were all struggling against the cabal. JFK made his intentions clear to the public and he paid the ultimate price. Reading between the lines; Reagan hinted at what was going on and the future consequences of not correcting our course.
Growing up during that era, there was a lot of news about Reagan's Strategic Defense Initiative or "Star Wars" program. The plan was to have armed US satellites orbiting earth ready to obliterate any inbound nukes (or anyone) that dared attack us. I assume that the project was already well underway when he announced it on March 23, 1983.
"I call upon the scientific community in this country, those who gave us nuclear weapons, to turn their great talents to the cause of mankind and world peace, to give us the means of rendering these nuclear weapons impotent and obsolete"
The Space Shuttle was a VERY popular NASA success at the same time and the payloads were occasionally "classified" since nearly every launch was a big deal and televised.
Since we sorta know how the cabal operates, it's possible that they knew of "Star Wars" in addition to Reagan's other plans and had him shot, and maybe even had someone sabotage the Space Shuttle Challenger. Doing so would derail the means to install a weapon system so advanced (for the era) that the any faction of the cabal could be evaporated at any moment.
Regarding space, Q stated:
Was terminated for a specific reason.
Hints the Space program under Reagan may have been even more elaborate and expansive then what was public knowledge. So much so that not even Reagan knew the details Example from Reagans Diary. June 6, 1985.

Max crew, according to public knowledge at any rate, of the NASA shuttles was 8. By June 1985 we had 4 confirmed functional Shuttles. And 1 Scheduled for it’s maiden launch in October of that year. That’s 40 people total.
Granted context for the entry is for the most part lacking. They could have been referring to in the event of an emergency they could theoretically throw together enough shuttles to get that many people into orbit or something similar. But the wording seems to indicate they had the ability to do so at anytime in the present tense.
Rods from God-- 20 feet long, by 1 Ft wide, Tungsten Steel Rods dropped from a distance far enough to become supersonic....
Now, the Military has decided to go with 1/2 sized Rods....
Probably have Cameras to enhance guidance, and a propellant to enhance speed....
Not Nukes, which are against many treaties, but just as effective, without the fallout....
There's a reason hard sci-fi features a lot of KKV's (kinetic kill vehicles), and that reason is that Sir Isaac Newton is the deadliest son of a bitch in space!
Mass Effect haha!
