After reading a bit about Kubrick and hearing interviews with some close to him, I've come to suspect that he was clairvoyant without knowing it. Over and over in his career, he was 'channeling' information that he could not have known about, and this jeopardized his safety to a degree that he was eventually taken out for making Eyes Wide Shut.
I believe this also happened with Tom Clancy. Military insiders have presumed he must have had top secret clearance given the precision of detail in his books. But he himself claimed that it was all by coincidence. I think he also has clairvoyant abilities he was not aware of and was possibly killed because he was revealing too much.
i think he was in their circle and got famous because they made him famous. he did them favors (faking the moon landing) and they helped publicize his movies. the easter eggs in his films are for him and those in the know to enjoy and to mock the average joe.
It does look as if his 2001 sets might have been commandeered by Kissinger or Rumsfeld for some kind of staged moon landing, but I can't find anything that points to Kubrick personally being a co-conspirator in anything bad. I think his death during Eyes Wide Shut is fairly suspicious, timing-wise.

NASA gave him a low light camera, how's that?
