At the time, it was suggested (without evidence) that the material had the capacity to function as a terahertz waveguide, thus enabling it to generate "antigravity capabilities."

"TTSA has acquired multiple pieces of metamaterials that are reported to have come from an advanced aerospace vehicle of unknown origin," the group wrote. "We're enthusiastic about its potential use and how it can further our mission for discovery and innovation."

Later, in an interview with the New York Times, Luis Elizondo - the academy's Director of Global Security and Special Programs - confirmed that they were in possession of "exotic material samples from UFOs" and that efforts were ongoing to "find the most qualified individuals at the most respectable institutions to conduct scientific analysis."

Five years on and we finally have the results of this analysis which was carried out by the Oak Ridge National Laboratory (ORNL) at the request of the All-Domain Anomaly Resolution Office (AARO).Those expecting this particular material to be a 'smoking gun' with regard to alien evidence, however, may be a little disappointed with the findings.

"ORNL assessed this specimen to be terrestrial in origin and that it does not meet the theoretical requirements to function as a terahertz (THz) waveguide," the lab wrote in its report.

The material is in fact an alloy containing magnesium, zinc and bismuth.

"[T]he specimen's physical properties are consistent with a material of terrestrial origin," the report reads.

"Considering all available evidence, AARO assesses that this specimen is likely a test object, a manufacturing product or byproduct, or a material component of aerospace performance studies to evaluate the properties of [magnesium] alloys."
