Hypothesis To Test
The lead asks whether this source should be collected as a physical-material reference. The test is whether the page documents actual recovered material, a material claim, a shape/marking reference, or only administrative/provenance metadata.

The page supports a shape-language note: circular object, dome-like reflective feature, and witness attempt to contact military authorities. It does not support material composition, debris recovery, laboratory analysis, crash retrieval, or Nitinol/Roswell claim-chain escalation.
