Vincent Schaefer's first contact with the Munitalp Foundation came in the early 1950s around the time that Project Cirrus was winding down. The day-to-day routine in the research lab at General Electric was changing from the way it was in the days of Willis Whitney, so in 1951 Schaefer began scaling back his hours at G.E. to collaborate with Munitalp's board of trustees. By 1954, Schaefer was ready to make a complete break from G.E. to become Munitalp's director of research.
