Not really.

Colin Andrews, one of the UK's leading crop circle researchers states that the British public has been continually lied to in regard to the Royal Family's interest in UFOs. He thinks it is about time the public is told the truth about this matter.

>"The Royal family's interest in UFOs actually goes back to the 1950s.
Earl Louis Mountbatten was one of the first subscribers to the highly-influential "Flying Saucer Review" from 1955 to 1979.

The Duke of Edinburgh kept a map at Buckingham Palace showing the location of UFO sightings on his wall and he asked the British Air Ministry to send him a copy of every UFO report they received. He also brought UFO witnesses to the Palace for private discussions."

"But it looks as if he realized the danger this would place him in - not least the huge potential embarrassment for the royals if it leaked out."
