An “alien” discovery was on the docket in Mexico’s Congress on Tuesday, as “non-human” corpses were unveiled to politicians at a public hearing.

Prominent Mexican UFO expert and journalist Jaime Maussan presented two small mummified corpses he testified under oath were not part of “our terrestrial evolution.”

The hearing discussed alleged evidence of extraterrestrial life, including the unearthing of three-fingered humanoid corpses with elongated heads as well as various UFO sightings.

The purported alien cadavers were retrieved from Cusco, Peru. “These aren’t beings that were found after a UFO wreckage,” Maussan said. “They were found in diatom mines and were later fossilized.”

Maussan claimed that the bodies were examined by scientists at the National Autonomous University of Mexico who used radiocarbon dating to conclude that the corpses were approximately 1,000 years old. Radiocarbon dating is not a perfect science, however, as results can be skewed by several factors including contamination.

It was also found that 30% of the specimens’ DNA was “unknown,” while both corpses were said to have implants of rare metals like osmium, with one body containing eggs inside, according to the experts who testified.

Maussan has made similar claims in the past. In 2017, the UFO expert was involved in a hoax surrounding five mummified corpses found in Peru. Similar to the recent Peruvian discovery, these corpses were three-fingered and humanoid with elongated heads and turned out to be human children.

This prompted professor Konstantin Korotkov from the Russian National Research University to remark, “Those involved in ‘scientifically’ examining the mummies seem to believe they are ancient aliens, but they are suffering from the wish to believe.”

Maussan has worked at some of Mexico’s most recognized news outlets, including 60 Minutes and TV Azteca, and is the subject of the documentary Maussan’s UFO Files.

It appears that the U.S. government is taking the threat of UFOs more seriously as House lawmakers have demanded the U.S. investigate whistleblower testimony from those claiming to have witnessed unidentified anomalous phenomena.

The Pentagon also launched a website this August for the All-domain Anomaly Resolution Office, which leads UFO investigations and research.
