Specimen # 20

&nbsp;

This sample was acquired in the city of Norrk&ouml;ping on the eleventh of August, anno MCMXLVI (1946).

It was added to FOA 1 on August 22nd, 1946.

It was accompanied by the following letter:

&quot;Reporter: Mrs. A. Broman, Tulegatan 4, Norrk&ouml;ping. Place of report: Bergslags street in Norrk&ouml;ping. More specifically, outside house no. 54 heading East. Point in time: August 11th, at around 8:50 PM. Elapsed time for the observation: A few seconds. Direction: SXSW - NXNW (from Eneby street to Bergslags street). Height: about 20 - 30 meters above street level. Description: A small (about 10 &agrave; 15 cm in diameter) blazing fireball, which radiated a greenish glow. It was reported to emanate a burst of flame, approximately one half feet in length. The Fireball appeared to ascend to an altitude of about 50-75 meters, after which it turned left and eventually fell down in a garden connected to 52nd Bergslags street. There were no traces of smoke. No sound was heard (however, it should be noted that Mrs. A. Broman is quite deaf; hence, the reported lack of sound is not likely to be entirely correct). As Mrs. A Broman chose to visit the site in question during the following day (12/8), some slag pieces were discovered. These pieces were enclosed with this letter. Lastly, it should be mentioned that even though the owner of this particular garden cleaned and raked the area (which is very small) during Sunday morning (11/8), he hadn&#39;t found any examples of slag-like materials.

&nbsp;

The test consists of four pieces of dark, almost black, glassy compact slag, which, judged by their appearance, apparently have been lying on the ground for a long period of time. All slag pieces are coated with a layer of dust. Rock flour and sand were found in their cavities. Spectral analysis shows the main constituents to be iron and silicon. Minor amounts of magnesium, manganese, sodium, and titanium. This specimen is probably an iron-silicate-based slag of metallurgical origin and nothing suggests it to be a remnant of a space projectile.
