Details of the planned meeting between the Prince and George Adamski - a Polish-American who claimed he had been taken on a tour of the solar system with aliens from Venus - are documented in 'Flying Saucerers: A Social History Of UFOlogy'. The introduction was arranged in 1959 by a private secretary to Queen Elizabeth, General Sir Frederick Browning, and ex-RAF pilot Desmond Leslie. However, the meeting was cancelled at the last minute amid fears that it could pose a risk of embarrassment to the Royal Family. Co-author Dr David Clarke told Britain's Daily Express newspaper: "This alone shows how far these bizarre ideas had penetrated the upper classes and royalty. There's no doubt from the documentation we have that Prince Philip and his uncle Lord Mountbatten were UFO enthusiasts, and I'm sure Philip would have met Adamski if he felt he could have got away with it. "But it looks as if he realised the danger this would place him in - not least the huge potential embarrassment for the royals if it leaked out." According to reports, the prince was once a subscriber to Flying Saucer Review magazine and his interest in aliens is well- documented. Listen to 'Strange Days...
