The rocket was owned by the Life Foundation, an American bio-engineering company run by Carlton Drake. It was carrying alien life forms when it crashed in Malaysia.

The aliens were discovered on a comet by the space explorers.

From Quiz Von Ryan's Express

Answer: His plane crashed.

As the film opened, we saw a sputtering plane losing altitude over a coastal city in Italy. A pair of Nazis who were eating lunch spotted the plane and took off to find it. They were beaten to the crash site by a truck full of Italian soldiers who informed the Nazis that the pilot had died in the crash, and a subsequent explosion of the fuselage deterred them from investigating further. When the Nazis took off, the Italians mocked them, and we then saw that they were hiding the American pilot, who had survived the crash. They may not have liked the Nazis, but they were still soldiers at war against the allies, so they took the pilot to an Italian prisoner-of-war camp.

Answer: They didn't approve of her husband.

They married and had two kids (Becca and Tyler) before he met someone new in a Starbucks, married her, and moved to Palo Alto, California, cutting things off with his old family. Such is life. Loretta's parents never liked the guy, so she left home at 19 and didn't speak to her parents for fifteen years. Recently, her parents wanted to meet the grandkids. Fortunately, the grandkids want to meet them too, so they leave Philadelphia on the train and head out to Masonville, PA, while their mother takes a beach cruise with her new boyfriend (who the kids like).

From Quiz "The Vigilante" - The 1947 Movie Serial

Answer: Greg Sanders

In a rare move, Columbia Pictures didn't change the real name of the Vigilante from his comic book incarnation. They did make him a government agent of non-descript rank, and his sidekick went from being a young Chinese lad in the comics to a nearly middle-aged white guy on film. Ralph Byrd played the Vigilante adequately, though most people who see it remember more of his roles in previous serials (such as "S.O.S. Coast Guard")and his movie and television work as Dick Tracy than his performance in this serial. The Vigilante's name is now often also spelled as "Greg Saunders", which is how it was pronounced in the serial.
