Angel hair sometime falls in a jelly form. Unlike star jelly, it doesn't
originate from meteors, it comes from ionized air created by the
electomagnetic fields of UFOS.

This article is about Angel hair as in UFOs. For angel hair pasta, see
Capellini.
Angel hair or siliceous cotton is a substance said to be dispersed from UFOs
as they fly overhead. It has been described as being like a cobweb or a
jelly.[1][2][3] It has also been reported at sightings of the Virgin
Mary.[4][5]

It is named for its similarity to fine hair, or spider webs. Reports of
angel hair say that it disintegrates or evaporates within a short time of
forming.[1][6][7][8] One theory is that it is "ionized air sleeting off an
electromagnetic field" that surrounds a UFO.[9] It is an important aspect of
Ra?lism.[2]

[edit] Sightings
There have been many reports of falls of angel hair around the world.

Angel hair was reported at the Miracle at Fatima on the 13th of September
and October 1917.[10]

The most reported incidence occurred in Oloron, France in 1952.[2]

On October 27, 1954, Gennaro Lucetti and Pietro Lastrucci stood on the
balcony of a hotel in St. Mark's Square in Venice and saw two "shining
spindles" flying across the sky leaving a trail of the angel hair.[1]

In the Portuguese city of ?vora on November 2, 1959, angel hair was
collected and analyzed at the microscope by local school director and later
by armed forces technicians and scientists of the University of Lisbon.
Conclusions were not possible although it was formed, apparently, by a small
organism featuring 10 'arms' stretching from a central core. It was advanced
that it could be a single-celled organism of some kind. This event followed
the sighting, by the population of the city, of several UFOs. Angel hair was
also spotted in the same day, at the Air Force Base of Sintra, several
kilometers to the north.[citation needed]

[edit] Published explanations
Explanations based on known phenomena include:

  a.. Some types of spiders are known to migrate through the air, sometimes
in large numbers, on cobweb gliders.[5] Many cases of angel hair were
nothing other than these spider threads and, in one occasion, small spiders
have been found on the material.[8]
  b.. Atmospheric electricity may cause floating dust particles to become
polarized, and attraction between these polarized dust particles may cause
them to join together, to form long filaments.[11]
  c.. On two occasions a sample was sent for testing once on the 13 of
October in 1917 a sample found at Cova da Iria was sent to Lisbon and on
October 17, 1957 another sample found at Cova da Iria and examined. The
analysis of this proved to be natural consisting of white flakes. When put
under a microscope it was found to be a vegetable product not animal.[10]
Explanations related to Unidentified Flying Objects include:

  a.. Ionized air may be sleeting off the electromagnetic field that
surrounds a UFO.[9]
  b.. Excess energy converted into matter.[1]
  c.. The usage by UFOs of a G-field would cause heavy atoms in ordinary air
to react among themselves and produce a kind of precipitate that falls to
the ground and disappears as the ionization decreases.[12]
[edit] Angel grass
"Angel grass" is a related phenomenon. It is when short metallic threads
fall from the sky, often forming intertwined loosed masses.[8] They are a
type of Chaff, a radar counter-measure which can be in the form of fine
strands, which is dropped by some military aircraft.[8] It can also come
from sounding rockets and balloons, which would have released it at high
altitude for radar tracking.[8]



Angel hair sometime falls in a jelly form. Unlike star jelly, it doesn't
originate from meteors, it comes from ionized air from the electomagnetic
