At around 2 p.m., Roy went to a laboratory in Harrisburg. He wanted to have some of these strands examined. To collect samples, he had to be quick to put them in a plastic bag since they dissolved in his hand after a few seconds.

Once Roy got to the lab, he handed the bag over to a group of skilled scientists. As soon as they saw Roy's findings, they were astounded. They decided to run a test to see what this man had discovered.

After about three hours of analysis, they concluded that the material Roy found was composed of boron, calcium, magnesium, and silicon. "Stuff like this does not show up every day," one researcher said.

With that in mind, Roy decided to return home to think about the results.
