A UFO organization launched by former Blink 182 frontman Tom DeLonge enounce   it has in its self-possession " groundbreaking metamaterials " unknown to scientific discipline .

The cloth , he claims ( in all caps ) in an Instagram post , came from " UNIDENTIFIED vehicle " , though he and his organization To The Stars Academy have not yet offered substantiation of this or any of their other out - of - this - world claims .

" We have been able to establish that the material shows extremely advanced and anomalous engineering potentiality , "   DeLonge , most famous for hitting such asApple Shampoo ,   said in an enigmatic Instagram post alongside what appear to be photograph of the stuff .

" This acquirement will allow us to expand the background of our ADAM Research Project and accelerate R&D that could lead to numerous aerospace and engine room breakthroughs . "

Over several station , he showed off low - res images of the fabric .

" The structure and composition of these materials are not from any known existing military machine or commercial program program , ” COO of the establishment Steve Justice said in astatement . " They ’ve been roll up from source with motley levels of chain - of - detention certification , so we are focalize on falsifiable fact and working to acquire independent scientific substantiation of the materials ' property and attributes .

" In some example , the manufacturing engineering science required to manufacture the stuff is only now becoming available , but the material has been in documented possession since the mid-1990s . "

multitude have been middling skeptical , as you ’d reckon . Extraordinary call take sinful cogent evidence , and what we have so far is a humiliated - res picture of what looks like a rock tweeted by a former rockstar .

People have ask why they would twinge such a low - res look-alike , or a stock image , when what you ’d likely want if you had discovered likely eldritch materials is as many eyes as potential to rule out any earthly explanations .

Nevertheless , the establishment has go big with claims about the material of unknown origin .

“ If the claims associated with these assets can be validated and realise , then we can start work to transition them from being a technology to commercial and military capabilities,”saidJustice .

“ As observe in our October 2017 TTSA kickoff webcast , technology that would let us to engineer the spacetime metric function would bring capability that would fundamentally alter civilisation , with revolutionary change to transportation , communication , and computation . ”

Aprevious postby To The Stars Academy suggested that the material was   Magnesium - Zinc - Bismuth .

Similar materials have made their way around the UFO lap , generator and writer for Skeptic magazineJason Colavito wrote in a blog postwhen a   like sampling surfaced in 2018 . A potential prompting as to what   the " UFO " material could be , he documents , is that its serious old - fashioned industrial waste .

“ The combination of Bi and magnesium had eluded us for four years . But then one daytime , we constitute a credit to an hidden industrial process used in the nicety of atomic number 82 . The physical process , called the Betterton - Krohl Process , utilize molten magnesium float over the aerofoil of liquid lead . The magnesium sucks up , or pulls bismuth impurities out of the lead . "

Dammit .
