Last night, the Mexican Congress displayed two potentially alien bodies. A huge moment in history and you probably missed it.

That’s right, only 2,700 of us were watching.

There are not many unpublicised happenings where I’d set the alarm a week in advance, wake up at 02:30 and listen to four and a half hours in Spanish, but this was one of them. I only heard about it at all courtesy of the UFO community’s rapidly rising star Cristina Gomez (on Medium, on YouTube).

Even though September 12th’s platform was an official, government-level event where all concerned were providing evidence under oath, none of the major networks and newspapers would look at it, such is the stigma around the topic. This morning, they’re all looking pretty stupid.

From about the 3 hour and 33 minute stage of the YouTube stream linked here, you might want to pay attention. The claims are:

Six years ago, a collection of 20 unusual corpses were discovered laid out in a diatom mine in Nazca, Peru. Diatom is the abrasive substance in your toothpaste, gleaned from diatomaceous (carboniferous) deposits. Two of these desiccated bodies were unveiled for the public and press to inspect.

After investigation by Mexican scientists at the Autonomous National University of Mexico (UNAM; corroborated by a Russian research group), C14 radiocarbon dating estimated that these remains were in the median range of 1,000 years old and the mine was about 200 years older.

The bodies contained no human DNA internally but some identifiable markers were found externally, which may have been due to handling.

Although these are accepted to be non-human bodies, no conclusion was reached about whether they evolved on Earth separately to the rest of the Darwinian tree or if they are an exotic (imported) alien species.

They show the Earth animal body structure (head, two eyes, rib cage, two arms branching into fingers, central spinal axis, two legs) which indicates a common Earth ancestor, but other possibilities exist: Convergent evolution. Genetic manipulation. A designed biological form to function in Earth conditions.

They were neither mummified (no bindings, not treated) nor were they fossilised (mineralisation usually takes a minimum of 10,000 years).

One body contained three eggs, inside of which foetuses had been imaged on a sonogram (ultrasound).

The chest cavities contained large, metal implants. The purpose of these was unknown, but imagine the level to which they were advanced if they could perform the refinement of elements, then major chest cavity surgery and for the introduced material to be accepted by the body, one thousand years ago.

The timeline indicates that this non-human species lived alongside late Holocene humans.

This analysis is repeatable and peer-reviewable, so they have said that independent research is welcomed. The Mexican Congress states that this stage has also been completed during the last year and that the claims are genuine.

Alright, so where does this leave us? Well, the first thing I would like clarification of is whether “no human DNA” means they do have ATCG Deoxyribonucleic acid (all Earth plants and animals have it because they all have a distant common ancestor) or did they find completely different genetic building blocks? In other words, was it Earth DNA but there are no genes, chromosomes or markers in common with humans OR do they have a completely alien chemical build? This should rule out a hybrid species because it is pretty hard to cross the species barrier, let alone cross a species coded in ATCG with a fully separate coding system, like AFLP. It’s like pushing a CD into a trumpet and thinking they’ll mate.

The big philosophical question? Are we alone? This Mexican Congressional hearing pushes the slider further up the scale toward probably not.

Afterword, almost a retraction.

It is a fair claim that I am a trusting idiot, another little feather that doesn’t resist the breeze. The reason I say that is because, overwhelmed by the ‘wow’, I parroted the declaration that was reported under oath in the Mexican Congress, without knowing anything about the person making the claim and assuming they had vetted him for credibility before inviting him to be a witness. Caveat emptor. I knew deep down that if something has the human skeletal form then it is spectacularly unlikely to have evolved independently on a different planet, as I’ve written about this before.

Straight after the hearing, Ryan Graves, another speaker from the line-up, distanced himself from the event, making it clear that he was not pleased to see a surprise stunt pulled which tarnished his reputation by association, i.e. appearing earlier on the same platform (he discussed air safety).

Since the story broke, it has come out that the speaker was involved in an earlier attempt in 2017 (and also the forensic researcher in 2015) to convince the world that mummies he had discovered which had elongated heads were potentially alien. When analysed, it transpired that they had been assembled from human remains, suggesting a deliberate attempt by somebody to sell a hoax.

The promise the speaker extended to the press that evidence would be available for any researcher to test appears to be an over-claim too. What he seems to be saying now is that anyone can evaluate the paper report that he has compiled on the analysis of the remains and their genetic composition. This includes the finding by the Russian scientist (with only 1 peer reviewed paper to his name, who does not appear on the faculty list for St Petersburg University) that there was no cat or dog DNA involved. What the presenter at Congress failed to mention was that the Russian scientist did say he had found lama DNA. That’s quite a significant omission.

When a hoaxer asks you to believe that their latest work is not a hoax, you should take a long step back before believing them.

The only way to settle this for sure is to send tissue samples to independent, world renown genetics testing laboratories in other countries. If they find the DNA of terrestrial species, then this claim is disproven and dead. If they confirm the claim by finding non-terrestrial genetic material, which presumably would not even be ATCG DNA but be built from other chemical markers, that would be an extremely serious research finding — Nobel Prize, automatically. If it is found that an attempt has been made to obliterate the genetics (alkaloid bleaching, gamma radiation), that would indicate an advanced and elaborate hoax.

My revised position is that the claim should be parked as untrue, evidence deliberately withheld, unless the claimant is brave enough to send tissue samples to real labs and let them run their own evaluations. Something tells me he will not do that anytime soon — and there’s your answer. Sorry for bouncing around like an excited megapuppy.
