Prince Philip Probing Notorious ‘UFO’ Encounters
Article by Tom Towers November 25, 2020 (dailystar.co.uk)
• It is no secret that royal consort Prince Philip, Duke of Edinburgh (pictured above with wife, Queen Elizabeth), has long had an interest in UFOs. Philip kept a map of UFO sightings on the wall in Buckingham Palace. He asked to see top-secret MoD reports into “close encounters” and told a senior aide to study UFO cases.
• Philip, 99, got into the UFO/alien phenomenon thanks to his uncle and mentor Lord Mountbatten, who admitted to his belief in aliens after his bricklayer, Fred Briggs, had an encounter with a flying saucer in 1955. In a signed statement, Mountbatten wrote: “Mr Briggs was still dazed when I first saw him and was worried that no one would believe his story. Indeed, he made a point of saying that he had never believed in flying saucer stories before, and had been absolutely amazed at what he had seen.”
• Last summer, it was noted that Philip read The Halt Perspective, a book focusing on the Rendlesham Forest incident when two members of the US Air Force from the nearby USAF bases, stumbled upon an unknown craft displaying strange “hieroglyphic symbols”. The craft accelerated away at high speed after they touched it. One of the book’s authors received a letter from Philip’s private secretary saying: “I am certain it will be read with close interest over the summer.” Philip also reportedly received a book called Haunted Skies: The Encyclopedia of British UFOs.
• Author David Clarke claims that Prince Philip wanted to meet the infamous ET contactee, George Adamski. Adamski claimed to have met a blonde-haired alien from Venus who took him in his spaceship for a tour of the solar system. A secret meeting with Adamski was cancelled at the last minute over fears it could embarrass the Royal Family.
