Skeptics Slam 'Alien Bodies' Claims in Mexican Congress Hearing

 

Alien Corpses shown to Congress

On September 13, 2023, a controversial event took place in Mexico City that sparked international debate and skepticism. Jaime Maussan, a self-proclaimed UFO expert and journalist, presented two alleged alien corpses to the Mexican Congress. The specimens, claimed to be non-human beings, were said to have been discovered in algae mines in Cusco, Peru, in 2017. Maussan asserted that these remains were not mummies or manipulated in any way, and that they were not part of our terrestrial evolution.

The supposed alien bodies were described as shriveled and gray, each with three fingers on their hands. Maussan claimed that X-rays revealed one of the beings had "eggs" inside it. However, these claims were met with widespread skepticism from the scientific community. Antígona Segura, a top astrobiologist in Mexico, dismissed Maussan's conclusions as lacking evidence, calling the entire event "very shameful."

Adding to the controversy, Maussan stated that researchers at the National Autonomous University of Mexico used carbon dating to determine the remains were about 1,000 years old. However, the university distanced itself from Maussan's testimony, stating they were not involved in collecting the sample or in contact with the full specimens. They also reiterated that they did not make conclusions about the origin of these samples.

This is not the first time Maussan has made such claims. In 2015, he revealed a body he claimed was an alien, which was later proven to be the remains of a human child. In 2017, he participated in a video project claiming that specimens with elongated skulls and three fingers on each hand, uncovered in Nazca, Peru, were evidence of aliens. These claims were debunked by archaeologists who suggested the bodies may have been Indigenous Peruvians, mutilated to look extraterrestrial.

Despite the skepticism and backlash, the event has fueled public interest in extraterrestrial beings. This was further amplified when NASA released a report on Unidentified Anomalous Phenomena (UAP) and announced the appointment of its first director of UAP research, just a day after Maussan's testimony. However, the scientific community remains cautious, emphasizing the need for evidence-based research and analysis in the field of extraterrestrial life.
