George Adamski (April 17, 1891 – April 23, 1965) was a Polish-born American citizen who became widely known in ufology circles, and to some degree in popular culture, after he claimed to have photographed ships from other planets, met with friendly Nordic alien "Space Brothers", and to have taken flights with them. The first of the so-called contactees of the 1950s, he styled himself to be a "philosopher, teacher, student and saucer researcher." though was often considered to be a "crackpot".

I think you are missing the point a bit here. You have to ask yourself how would Adamski himself, have any idea where he was being "taken" by his celestial friends? Did he have an advanced degree in Astro navigation? Had he seen these places beforehand? Of course not, in both cases. In other words, he was told it was Venus he was taken to. That he accepted it as true, would have fitted the scientific model of the time. In those days many scientists did indeed hold out huge hope for finding life on Venus under its' impenetrable cloud cover. It could well be that Adamski was taken somewhere and told it was Venus, ie lied to. It's not beyond possibility that Adamski was the *patsy* used to spread disinformation about the whole UFO subject.
He was *treated* to these little jaunts in order to establish a wholly incredible story that no-one was ever really going to fall for on any sort of close inspection. Yet, a couple of his early photographs are actually quite interesting and yes, they do seem to encapsulate, almost perfectly, the human idea of what a UFO might look like circa the early 50s.
Given that, there might well be a case here that, on reflection, shows what the CIA was up to around that period. As people have mentioned, there was a huge paranoia around the possibility of 5th columns existing deep within American society. I don't think it is at all crazy to speculate that. The CIA set up a few totally *out there* projects in order to keep track and expose those who they thought might be "susceptible" to outside influences of a political kind. It's worth remembering here that, at the time, anyone expressing anything like a pro *commie* viewpoint was liable to be totally black balled within American society. It might well have been the CIA attempting to winkle out what might be termed the *passives* and the *sleepers* with these sort of political tendencies by inventing the whole idea of this *celestial brotherhood*.
Before people dismiss this out of hand. it is worth remembering that the American Legislative, and its' security forces were, in the final analysis, under the collective thrall of a form of paranoid psychosis. They were utterly convinced that the Russians were plotting to, somehow, attack and bring down the USA, from within. Given that, maybe the true story of Adamski is very Earthly in its' real origins, but a truly fascinating one as well.edit on 24-10-2010 by FireMoon because: spelling
