Did President Kennedy meet extraterrestrials?

President Kennedy arrives at Homestead AFB, 1962
President Kennedy arrives at Homestead AFB, Florida, 1962.

According to claims in a rare video, George Adamski met with President Kennedy at the White House in late 1961 and passed on a letter to him from human looking extraterrestrials. In addition to giving advice on the Cuban missile crisis, the alleged letter also contained an invitation for Kennedy to meet with the extraterrestrials. If Kennedy did attend such a meeting, it may explain why he was certain about human looking extraterrestrial life; made undisclosed trips to Air Force bases to deal with the UFO issue; and why he instructed NASA to cooperate with the USSR on joint space and lunar missions, and to release classified UFO files.

Lou Zinstag, Carl Jung’s niece describes what she was told by Adamski concerning Kennedy’s alleged meeting with extraterrestrials:

I still remember his [Adamski’s] White House story. He told me that he had been entrusted with a written invitation for President Kennedy to visit one of the space people’s huge mother ships at a secret airbase in Desert Hot Springs, California, for few days. In order to keep this visit absolutely secret, Adamski was to take the invitation directly to the White House through a side door. Still glowing with excitement and smiling happily, he explained how the row of cars in which his taxi was traveling had to stop because of a red light just in front of this particular door where a man he knew - a spaceman, he said - was standing ready to let him in. Adamski later learned that Kennedy had spent several hours at the airbase after having canceled an important trip to New York, and that he had a long talk with the ships crew, but that he had not been invited for a flight."

The quality of witness testimonies, photos and film evidence presented in the rare video (see part one of this investigative series), all lead to the conclusion that George Adamski was largely telling the truth about his flying saucer sightings and contacts with human looking extraterrestrials. There is however no direct physical evidence that Kennedy met with the extraterrestrials Adamski was in contact with. There is, however, circumstantial evidence that such a meeting did happen, and it influenced Kennedy’s policies on space cooperation and UFOs.

The first set of circumstantial evidence concerns Kennedy’s certain knowledge of UFOs and human looking extraterrestrials. A former flight steward and loadmaster on Air Force One, Bill Holden, confirmed that Kennedy was aware of UFOs and human looking extraterrestrials. In a June 2007 interview, Holden explained that in June 1963, while flying to Germany on Air Force One, he placed two newspapers before Kennedy where UFOs were clearly pictured on the front page. In response to Kennedy’s question of what he thought of UFOs, Holden said: “For us to believe that we are the only intelligent beings in the world is unbelievable. So, yes, I believe that there is such a thing as other human species as well as UFOs.” In response President Kennedy said: “You're right, young man.” The unqualified nature of Kennedy’s response revealed his knowledge that both UFOs and human looking extraterrestrials were real. This is circumstantial evidence that Kennedy was either briefed or did meet with human looking extraterrestrials as Adamski claimed. 

A second set of circumstantial evidence concerns a leaked document that claims that Kennedy knew, while serving in the U.S. Congress, about UFO crashes and the recovery of alien bodies. As a former Naval Intelligence officer, Kennedy was deemed reliable to receive such highly classified information. While the authenticity of the document in question, "Interplanetary Phenomenon Unit Summary," is disputed, the U.S. Army did finally acknowledge through FOIA responses that the Interplanetary Phenomenon Unit did at one time exist and was abolished in the late1950s. The helps support the legitimacy of the leaked document. Furthermore, the claim that Kennedy had knowledge of  UFO crash retrieval operations is supported by British UFO researcher Timothy Good. In his book Need to Know (2007), Good cites a reliable military source that Kennedy was taken to see the alien bodies from Roswell. Good wrote:

Around 1961/1962 President J.F. Kennedy expressed a wish to see the alien bodies associated with an alien crash-site. He had obviously been informed of their existence and wished to see for himself the evidence…. According to information received, the alien bodes were taken to Florida when Kenned went to see them [at] a medical facility." [pp. 420-21]

If the leaked document and/or the military whistleblower are accurate, then President Kennedy was aware of the reality of extraterrestrial life and technology. If Kennedy was so interested in seeing dead alien bodies during the early part of his administration, then it is very plausible that he would have accepted an invitation to meet with live extraterrestrials as Adamski claimed.

The third set of circumstantial evidence concerns President Kennedy secretly traveling to an undisclosed Air Force base to watch UFOs. A reliable source, according to UFO researcher Timothy Cooper, said that Kennedy "did fly out to an air force base to personally watch an unidentified bogie track from an aircraft under tight security which got no press coverage sometime in 1962."  If Kennedy did travel to a secret airbase in California to meet with live extraterrestrials, then the incident described by Cooper offered at least one opportunity for such a meeting to take place. Kennedy's alleged meeting with extraterrestrials, would have made him the second U.S. President to meet extraterrestrial ambassadors in the California desert. The first allegedly occurred on February 20, 1954 with President Eisenhower at Edwards Air Force base.

So far, the circumstantial evidence reveals that President Kennedy had been briefed about UFOs and extraterrestrial life earlier in his political career. Also, Kennedy knew that some extraterrestrials looked similar to humans. Finally, Kennedy secretly traveled to one or more undisclosed Air Force bases to view UFOs in action in 1962. The circumstantial evidence considered so far, does make plausible Adamski’s claim that Kennedy secretly traveled to California to meet with extraterrestrials sometime in 1961/1962. More circumstantial evidence for such a meeting is found in Kennedy’s initiative to get the USSR and USA to cooperate in joint space and lunar missions, and to release classified UFO files.

    If it was human-looking e.t.'s, the so-called "Nordics" or Pleiadians come to mind. Both are reportedly related, although the Pleiades can't possibly be the evolutionary origin of such aliens because the Pleiades is only 115 million years old. More time would be needed to allow for the conditions for life, let alone its actual evolution.

    Michael Wolf wrote in his book The Catchers of Heaven that his human-looking "Nordic alien contact named Kolta (seen on the book's rear cover) was from a pla

    Don't know why my entry was cut off in mid-sentence below. I was saying, Wolf's Nordic contact said he came from a planet of the star Altair. All of the above types of aliens have been reported to have assisted gray aliens in abductions. IF JFK met with such aliens, he may have done so to investigate a subject that he, like Ike, was cut out of after Nelson Rockefeller removed presidents from direct control of alien-related programs in 1953, the first year of Eisenhower's presidency.

    As Michael Salla notes, previous involvements with such aliens have historically led to deepening corruption and scaled up gray alignment abuses of humankind. In other words, that group of aliens may see such liasons as allowing them a foot in the door, here, for material or basing purposes.

    In this new and imaginative historical fiction we learn about Adamski, President Kennedy and our "good" big brothers, the ETs.
    Yes, of course, this has the value of a poor joke, but ALSO, gives the idea of complete Alien control over human affairs.

    If meeting with live aliens made Kennedy want NASA to cooperate with the USSR on joint space and lunar missions, did that mean he saw the ETs as a possible threat, and saw world unity as a desirable defensive position? On the other hand, he could have been taking advise, hopefully just advise, from the ETs to promote world unity.

    This all seems very plausible, I for one believe in Ufo's, if these beings who are light years ahead of us wanted us to know about them we would. I for one am thankful that the alien experiences I have had have been subtle and discrete rather than the flashing lights and honking their spaceship horns that most people expect and need in order for them to believe. What I do not believe is that these aliens are somehow fighting against one another, and if they are then it is a charade to dictate ou

I do believe that aliens have been around us for a while and they are what actually got us out of the trees and allowed us to evolve to what we are today, how did they manage this? They got us to believe in God, or something similar. Now humanities real strides will come when we can discard God and believe in ourselves!- kauai kid

    Adamski was either a blatant liar or completely out of touch with reality. He claimed to have visited planets that would have been impossible for him to have survived the time there.

    As usual Michael Salla writes again big history. Not based on facts, but on claims and loads of 'if' and shocking-secret-truth books [Need to know] that is based itself on hearsays. The new aspect is to bring together UFO-hoaxer Adamski with President Kennedy. You can bet, another UFO/exologist will take this story as a fact and base his theory on it. So we have an unexpected new dramaturgical element in the exological soap opera. Spreading the exological swine flu were a bit too hard. Isn't it?

    Just a note to all those who feel that Adamski's name immediately renders worthless any and all associated material...

    Thomas Jefferson once noted that it was not as important to know who said what, as it was to understand what was said. If the message bears even a single morsel of truth, then who spoke it is entirely irrelevant.

    We can be such a foolish, shallow society sometimes, especially when we dismiss content over means.

    Read the minervan experiment. It's science fiction with a hint of a possible motive for aliens that look like us. I think that we should go balls out for space and see what happens! We need to stop trying to over think everything and stop letting anyone or any media form, affect our goals. If we expand into space, Earth can't help but profit from it.

    My father was a WWII Veteran. We had a farm in Puerto Rico. He never believe in Ufo's, until one night he arrived at the house after a walk around the farm. He was quite pale. He said a light was on him. He thought it was a car but no car was on the road then he looked up and he saw a ship in the form of a cigar with lights of various colors going around. It made no noise the it sudennly took off without a noise at very high speed. That same night at a ball park in another town there were 300 people at a ball game they all saw the same ship slowly passing by. It was 1964 no one had a video camera. In Puerto Rico there are many sighttings. Many people have witnessed ships diving in the northern part of the island's Atlantic Ocean. Also in El Yunque Rainforest.

    Venus is probably hotter than earth because its the second planet from the sun. Well, venus certainly is a planet right? Well maybe venus doesnt have life on it, I dont know, Ive never been yet. But how about this, couldvenus have any plantlife on it like maybe trees or plants of some kind? Maybe mold? Mildew? Now mars has to be colder than earth because its further from the sun. Plants dont do well in cold. But I just want to put the bee in everyones bonnet that even if you dont believe in aliens from other planets, how about plant life somewhere. Plant life is on earth, how do you know there isn't some planet somewhere with a plant of some kind growing there too?
