During an UFO hearing in Mexico a ufologist presented two bodies that he claimed were extraterrestrial in origin. NPR. Jamie Maussan brought two caskets with him and reveled him to Mexico's congress. The bodies were small with large heads and three fingers and toes. They were found in Peru in 2017 and Maussan testified under oath that the bodies were non-human. These claims have been made before but experts say that the artifacts are likely either human mummies or manipulated hoaxes. The hearings had more serious claims being made, including testimony from Ryan Graves, a US Navy pilot that testified in hearings before America's Congress as well. Graves expressed disappointment, describing the bodies as an "unsubstantiated stunt."

My Comment:
I had fun with this one on Twitter this morning. As someone who is at least open to the possibility that alien life has visited Earth at some point, I found the claim here pretty obviously ridiculous. Those "aliens" look incredibly fake.
Those are the fakest looking aliens I have ever seen. It would be hilarious if it was real though, imagine the aliens coming up to you looking like that, you would laugh in their faces.

I did have fun with the idea that the aliens are real and they really look like that. They look like little gremlins that have been cobbled together with paper mache and dirt and look like they have never been alive in the first place. If aliens do look like that one would question how on earth they would have evolved that way. Of course the things are supposed to be 1000 years old but even accounting for that, they would look pretty ridiculous.
I think it's pretty obviously a hoax. I guess it could be a mummy of a human child, or perhaps a monkey but they just look like they were doctored up as a hoax. They simply do not pass the smell test for me and given the reaction on Twitter today I don't think a lot of people are convinced. They don't look like something that was ever alive and the faces alone scream fake to me.
It also doesn't make a whole lot of sense. Why would a couple of aliens just be chilling out in a cave somewhere until some people start a diatom mine in the area and find them? How would they even get there, there was no evidence of a ship or anything in the area? Did they go for a joyride and get drunk and wander into a cave an die?
I do tend to agree with Graves, this stunt likely set back the idea that UFOs/UAPs are a serious issue that should be studied. Indeed, hoaxes have been fairly frequent in the UFO community and it's not surprising that there would be another one when the issue is becoming more relevant. Some people are saying that this stunt was a deliberate attempt to discredit the issue, which seems like a stretch, but probably has some truth to it regardless if it was deliberate or not.
What is strange is that people claim that bodies have been recovered from UFO's before. That was hinted at during the testimony before America's Congress. Very little details of that have been revealed. But if it is real I doubt that what they found in anyway resembles the "aliens" in this debacle.
