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, and in some cases the substance has been found to be the web threads of migrating spiders. Reports of angel hair say that it disintegrates or evaporates within a short time of forming. Angel hair is an important aspect of the UFO religion Raëlism, and one theory among ufologists is that it is created from "ionized air sleeting off an electromagnetic field" that surrounds a UFO.
Angel hair may refer to:
- Angel hair pasta, Capellini
- Angel hair (folklore), an ethereal substance said to emanate from UFOs
- Portuguese sweet dish fios de ovos
- Spanish sweet dish cabell d'àngel
- Christmas tree decoration (flocking) made of glass fiber
