However, they were not prepared for the apparent cause of the communications failure – hostile alien life forms that would be referred to in later years as "Typhon". All members of the mission were lost, and footage of the incident was classified as a state secret by the Soviet leadership. </p><p data-rte-fromparser="true" data-rte-empty-lines-before="1">The Vorona-1 remained at that point, still infested with <a data-rte-meta="%7B%22type%22%3A%22internal%22%2C%22text%22%3A%22Typhon%22%2C%22link%22%3A%22Typhon%22%2C%22wasblank%22%3Atrue%2C%22noforce%22%3Atrue%2C%22wikitext%22%3A%22%5B%5BTyphon%5D%5D%22%7D" data-rte-instance="61196-1981261090592ab21da6da5" href="/wiki/Typhon" title="Typhon">Typhon</a> organisms, as a point of research for the joint American-Soviet Kletka Program, which was created by American President <a data-rte-meta="%7B%22type%22%3A%22internal%22%2C%22text%22%3A%22Kennedy%22%2C%22link%22%3A%22John%20F.%20Kennedy%22%2C%22wasblank%22%3Afalse%2C%22noforce%22%3Atrue%2C%22wikitext%22%3A%22%5B%5BJohn%20F.%20Kennedy%7CKennedy%5D%5D%22%7D" data-rte-instance="61196-1981261090592ab21da6da5" href="/wiki/John_F._Kennedy" title="John F.
