''Inside the Space Ships'' (George Adamski, 1955) describes his further adventures with his extraterrestrial friends, after his first contact in [[FlyingSaucersHaveLanded Flying Saucers Have Landed]].
As he tells it, he got a mysterious hint to go to a Los Angeles hotel, and two business-suited youngish-looking men met him there. They greet him in the fashion of the earlier Venusian, and one of them also greets him by name. George then goes off with them into the surrounding desert, learning that they come from Mars and Saturn, and he meets that Venusian and his [[FlyingSaucer flying saucer]] there. He names them: the Venusian Orthon, the Martian Firkon, and the Saturnian Ramu.
It's a short flight from there to the big cylindrical spaceship that he'd earlier seen, and the saucer goes inside. The four depart, they visit a control room, and they then visit a sumptuously decorated lounge where two women meet them, women that George finds indescribably beautiful. They wear pastel-colored gowns with jeweled belts and metallic-looking sandals, and George learns that these are two of the ship's pilots in off-duty outfits. Of the two, the Venusian he names Kalna and the Martian Ilmuth.
All six then sit down and have some very enlightening conversation, with George's ET friends describing their society and the history and answering his questions. Though the ship he's on is from Venus, its crew comes from several planets. When she's on duty and wearing a jumpsuit, Ilmuth invites George to her pilot station, and he accepts. He also has an audience with a spiritual master who has a lot to say, like assuring him that the Earth is not the least-developed planet in the Universe.
He makes some other trips, to a similar Saturnian ship, and then to the Venusian one again. In that latter trip, he participates in a going-away party for Firkon and Ramu, who are returning to their homeworlds from having lived on the Earth for a while. The ship also flies by the Moon, and George gets to see it up close, complete with lots of Earthlike scenes on its far side.
