Archive-level research
Joe Cell Plans Archive
A primary-source archive that separates evidence from lore. Every claim is tied to a document, archive, or contemporaneous record with provenance.
Current sweep
Deep web archive pass
Priority on official repositories, court records, primary newsletters, and contemporary press. New files are logged with access date, URL, and justification.
Evidence ladder
Everything is graded by evidentiary strength. The archive labels what is verified, what is community testimony, and what remains allegation.
Primary records
Court dockets, patents, official archives, contemporaneous press scans, and original documents with provenance.
Community records
Newsletters and first-hand experimenter notes with dates and identifiable issuers.
Self-published claims
Official or personal websites that document claims without independent verification.
Allegations
Suppression or shutdown narratives that lack primary evidence.
Archive map
This project brings together primary material and secondary context in a single place, with clear provenance and documentation.
Working principle
If a claim cannot be tied to a primary record, it is labeled as an allegation. Suppression claims require court orders, agency records, or contemporaneous press.
Official Joe Cell sites
Self-published claims and photos. Treated as first-hand assertions, not verification.
ASTRO South Australia newsletters
1999–2004 member newsletters with Joe Cell experimentation notes.
Early web captures
Wayback Machine snapshots of early Joe Cell and related sites.
Patent corpus
Water-fuel patents and technical disclosures for context, not direct Joe Cell proof.
Court records
Franklin County dockets for related legal matters; full images requested.
Manuals and media listings
Metadata for copyrighted books and VHS listings. No piracy, metadata only.
Open questions
We track what is still missing so researchers can focus on primary evidence rather than repeating lore.
- Where are the original build notes, schematics, or verified lab logs?
- Which demonstrations can be matched to contemporaneous press or institutional records?
- Who is “Joe,” and what primary documents connect him to the earliest experiments?
- Can early manuals or newsletters be sourced with clear provenance and permissions?
Next steps
- Await Franklin County docket images for 1979, 1993, and 1999 cases.
- Search Trove and regional archives for 1992–1996 reporting.
- Locate original Joe Cell manuals or newsletters with provenance.
- Request missing patent PDFs from official repositories.
