Some of the Mysteries of American Cosmic:

Who are the two unnamed scientists who vis the secret “Donation Location” with Diana? Both identities are easily discerned / publicly out there, however, only one (“James”) has revealed their identity and that is Garry Nolan. The person known as “Tyler D.” (after Tyler Durden from Fight Club) has not made themselves publicly known – so we are not posting there name here.
Where is the Secret “Donation Location”? Many have tried to find this location but its public disclosure would assuredly cause its destruction by tourists and “Legend Trippers”.
