The American Manhattan Project came about because Germany forced a lot of Jewish scientists out of their research jobs in the thirties.

Those scientists moved to the States, which was America's gain and Germany's loss when lots of Weapons Research happened during the forties.

America seems determined to lose out when Chinese scientists are barred from US jobs, or when Chinese space engineers are refused any interaction with NASA.
