MUFON Reveals Materials Reportedly Recovered from Crashed UFO at Recent Symposium
Arkadii said that he sent pieces of the material to be analyzed by two labs in Russia, who both used X-ray fluorescence to identify its composition. This technique is often used to preserve the material being tested.
After a week, the lab contacted him to say the material is composed of an “organometallic” but “not graphene” substance that consists of “organic atoms with admixture atoms, metals, and semi-metals.” The lab claimed to have only been able to identify ten percent of the material’s components, among them bromine, calcium, titanium, iron, and copper.
Following those tests, some of the material was sent to the MUFON lab in Missouri, where similar tests were conducted.
According to Lynne Mann, Chief Analyst at MUFON Laboratory, who conducted the tests, an X-ray fluorescence gun was unable to detect any known elements, “which surprised us, as similar constructs had been identified by a previous lab.”
This is especially unusual, Mann explained, because the X-ray fluorescence gun had been “standardized” by reading a substance known to be aluminum alloy prior to examination of the mystery substance.
“[The mystery substance] came up with a no match against the standard, but it also has a chemistry reading, so if there is no match to the standard it will give out a set of elements that it finds if the sample is metal,” she said. “It found none. That either means it is not metal or a metal alloy, or it isn’t a metal we recognize on the periodic table.”
Furthermore, a spectrograph reading returned results that the lab was unable to identify.
“It may be a background signal, but we have never had this before,” Mann said.
Ultimately, she concluded, “By appearance only, it appears to be some type of lightweight insulation suited to conductive insulating of something needing heat protection and needing to conserve on weight to operate.”
In another strange turn, the sample then went missing when the lab tried to ship it to Spearing.
Spearing said that although the package did apparently make it to his locked post office box, it was gone by the time he arrived to retrieve it.
“When I went to pick it up the next day it wasn’t there,” Spearing said. “I went to my mail clerk and said, ‘Hey, I have that it was delivered,’ and she said, ‘Yes, Bob, it was delivered. I put the box in your mailbox myself.’ So, the question becomes, who would be daring enough to remove something from a federally governed mailbox?”
Luckily, Spearing continued, another sample was mailed from Russia, which was opened live onstage at the symposium.
That sample, he said, will be sent on to two more laboratories where it will be examined with an electron microscope.
