Institute for Advanced Studies at Austin
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Institute for Advanced Studies at Austin is a private scientific think tank in Austin, Texas.
Established in 1985, its activities range from theoretical studies to publication in professional journals of such fundamental topics as gravitation, inertia, energy, and cosmology.
It is headed by Hal Puthoff and a fixed staff of other scientists. According to Michael Ibison, the IASA is funded by one or more anonymous donor(s). According to Skepdic's dictionary, a website maintained by Robert Todd Carroll, Joe Firmage has funded research by Puthoff. This may or may not suggest that Firmage is one of the anonymous donors funding IASA, however.
