The Encounter

Major George Filer is a former United States Air Force intelligence officer with over 20 years of service. He encountered a UFO while flying tankers over England. During a mission, his crew received a radar signal of a large object near Stonehenge. They descended to investigate and observed a craft that resembled a cruise ship, which then ascended into space. After the incident, Filer shared his experience with Prince Philip, who expressed his belief in UFOs due to family experiences. Filer's interest in UFOs continued, leading him to explore satellite images of Mars, where he believes he found evidence of past life and structures. The encounter and subsequent research significantly impacted his views on extraterrestrial life and the existence of UFOs.
