Prov nr 3:2 (Sample No. 3:2) Analysis Report

This document, dated July 16, 1946, details the analysis of a physical fragment designated as 'Sample No. 3:2'. The fragment was recovered following a sighting of a 'projectile' on July 9, 1946, between 14:00 and 14:30 at Norrvikssand in Njurunda parish, Västernorrland County. Witnesses to the event included a traffic pilot named Lindén and a woman named Söderlund, both of whom owned summer villas at the site of the alleged impact. The fragment, described as a checkered film or paper strip, was initially processed by Dr. Bäcklund at the Cellulose Company's research laboratory in Kubikenborg. A visual inspection of the sample described it as an irregularly shaped foil, approximately 10 square millimeters in size, featuring transparent square grids of varying sizes oriented along two perpendicular axes. The material appeared to be homogeneous and transparent. To determine the nature of the object, an investigation was conducted at the reproduction department of the company Esselte, facilitated by an engineer named Stuube. After microscopic examination, Mr. Möller of the reproduction department concluded that the fragment was a type of reproduction-technical material.
