There's any interesting article in todays Dail Mail relating to the late Prince Phillip's belief in UFO's. I remember listening to an interview with Neil Armstrong who said the the late Prince asked to meet the crew of Apollo 11 when they did their tour. Armstrong said that all Phillip was interested was whether the crew had seen any flying saucers or anything that could not be explained.
Do other's have their views or seen anything that could be described as a UFO.

Sadly I was the only one on the bus so nobody to confirm what I saw. I didn't know what it was then and I still don't.
UFOs have been witnessed for millenia. Obviously, there is a great deal of disagreement as to whether they are alien in origin, I think it is a fascinating subject.
However, expect the site's bucket-of-cold-water to come galloping onto the thread to tell us why they cannot possibly originate from elsewhere in the universe...
That's what I think,too.
But when this subject crops up it tends to get swamped by posts demonstrating, with maths, why we are alone in this part of the universe and likely to remain so.
Personally, I think the weight of historical artifacts and pictorial depictions of strange crafts and beings tend to confirm that we haven't always been alone....
Some years ago, along with friends, I was walking along the beach road in Cyprus, late in the evening when we spotted a V shaped formation of lights descend from the sky and fly across the sea some distance before accelerating high into the sky and vanishing from sight. There was no sound and because it was dark we had no way of judging how faraway the object was, or how fast it was travelling. It was eerie.
I do try to be open minded about this, same with ghost and ghoulies, but my mind being what it is and working the way I'd does, finds it difficult to accept and always thinks there's a logical explanation.
I do agree though, about other civilisations potentionally being out there. Would be interesting to know, wouldn't it 😱
I saw a UFO very closely in broad daylight and I wasn't alone. Very strange.
I think it's quite possible that aliens came here thousands of years ago and that what we call 'God' could well have been a being from another planet. I've studied that topic for years and in my opinion it makes perfect sense.
As the term UFO gets mocked as describing a 'Flying saucer' they're now refered as UAPs: Unidentified aerial phenomena.
Ever since reading Erich von Dänikens' Chariots of the Gods I've being fascinated as years before myself and a friend saw something which we certainly couldn't identify, all logical explanations disapated as quicky as it did after a sky dance.
If aliens have the technology to manipulate space/time to travel millions of light years to visit Earth, then they probably would not bother communicating with us because we are too primitive. In the same way you would not attempt to play chess with a earthworm or discuss quantum physics with an ape.
EvD piqued my interest as a teenager and I devoured all his books. I was disappointed to find much of what he claimed to have discovered has been debunked and he had greatly exaggerated his role in establishing the subject as suitable for rigorous investigation.
Until earlier this year, Blackpool was supposed to be having a new tourist 'experience' developed to include a lot of EvD's greatest discoveries.
And then the borough council discovered an unfortunate link with EvD and the nazis and the project was quietly shelved.
Regardless of all that, I still find much of what he introduced to me to be compelling and fascinating.
