(Depending upon the example,) who said the scientists at issue
were not co-located? If I'm not mistaken, a WHOLE LOT of both
A-bomb and later "rocket science" development was accomplished
with the leading lights on site, not elsewhere. Possibly on
several major sites, with travel between.
But perhaps you indeed mean different examples. Or (as
frequent) perhaps I am indeed mistaken.
