AI-Generated Summary
Robert Kiviat sued Joseph Firmage for unpaid work related to anti-gravity research and media ventures. The document provides a skeptical overview of Firmage's business history, his interest in the 'Nazi Bell' device, and his alleged connections to CIA personnel.
This document is a blog post from 'Bad UFOs' by Robert Sheaffer, dated March 21, 2019, detailing a lawsuit filed by Robert Kiviat against Joseph Firmage. Kiviat, known for producing the 'Alien Autopsy' television program, alleges that Firmage and his company, InterNASA, failed to pay him for his work on anti-gravity research and media projects. The post outlines Firmage's history as a Silicon Valley entrepreneur who founded the International Space Sciences Organization (ISSO) in 1999. Firmage is described as having an interest in fringe science, specifically the 'Nazi Bell' device, which he allegedly funded a replication of through a defense contractor named SARA. The document notes that Firmage's ventures, including One Cosmos, ManyOne Networks, and Motion Physics, were largely unsuccessful. Kiviat claims that he was recruited by Firmage to document an anti-gravity breakthrough, which he later came to believe was part of a disinformation 'flytrap' scheme orchestrated by CIA scientist Ron Pandolfi. The post also mentions Firmage's legal troubles, including multiple arrests for DUI and bankruptcy filings. Sheaffer provides commentary on the lack of evidence for the 'Nazi Bell' and the dubious nature of Firmage's claims regarding faster-than-light travel and gravity control. An update added in April 2023 notes that the lawsuit was dismissed and identifies Brandon Fugal as an investor in Firmage's technologies.
Kiviat now is suing certain individuals and organizations for money that he says they owe him for his work on anti-gravity systems.
