No scientific support of any kind was present for the events described in the first book. But events that have taken place since publication, and coming from different parts of the world, have proven greater support than anything that | could have produced on publication date. This has happened in spite of opposing forces who, for whatever reasons, do not wish the truth to come out. It will be the same with this book. | have been well protected against many things, as well as guided. So far, the Brothers have never let me down. So if we wait patiently and in quiet confidence, things will come out as they should. There will be more abundant proof throughout the world than |, as one man, could ever be given or, in turn, give out. Always, When | co-authored Flying Saucers Have Landed with George Adamski, | had never met him. My publisher and | both agreed that there was sufficient evidence, in his testimony that he had contacted a Flying Saucer on the ground, to warrant publishing his narrative. Later events proved that we were justified. In November 1958, one month after our book had been published, an object almost identical to the one photographed by Adamski flew over Norwich, Norfolk, and was observed by seven members of the British Astronomical Association and the Norwich Astronomical Society, one of whom, Mr. Potter, made a drawing showing a Saucer with a dome and a ring of portholes, almost identical in appearance to Adamski?s photographs. On February 15, 1954, two boys aged thirteen and eight took a photo of an object that had descended from the clouds over Coniston, Lancashire. The photo was somewhat out of focus but sufficiently clear to show the Saucer, the dome, four portholes and a kind of ball landing-gear, similar to the Adamski photographs. The only difference, so far as rough examination could show, was a difference in angle. This photograph appeared to have been taken at an angle of about 250 to the vertical axis of the Saucer, whereas the corresponding Adamski photograph was taken at an angle of about 500. A thorough investigation proved that the boys had not (1) faked the negative, or (2) photographed a model copied from the Adamski photographs. Further evidence was later provided by Leonard Cramp, M.S.I.A. (author of a recent scientific book called Space, Gravity and the Flying Saucer), who, by a process of orthographic projections, proved that the Coniston Saucer was identically proportioned to the Adamski Saucer, and that had the boys made a model they would have been first required to make orthographic projections and then build up their model to scale.
