Angel Grass
Angel hair or siliceous cotton is a sticky, fibrous substance reported in connection with UFO sightings, or manifestations of the Virgin Mary. It has been described as being like a cobweb or a jelly.
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. One theory among ufologists is that it is created from "ionized air sleeting off an electromagnetic field" that surrounds a UFO, although in some cases the substance was found to be the web threads of migrating spiders. Angel hair is an important aspect of the UFO religion Raëlism.

O bear me away on your snowy wings, To my immortal home.”
