One of the alien bodies displayed last week in Mexico Congress underwent multiple laboratory tests, including an X-ray and CT scan, as part of a study to ascertain whether it was man-made or natural.
The examinations, which were conducted on Tuesday (September 19) at a laboratory in Mexico City, found that the mummified remains were not fabricated or tampered with in any manner, implying that they were genuine.
According to Jose de Jesus Zalce Benitez, director of the Mexican Navy’s Scientific Institute for Health, the purported remains belonged to a single skeleton and were not put together with animal or human bones.
He went on to say that laboratory examinations revealed: “there is no evidence of any assembly or manipulation of the skulls”.
“[They] belong to a single skeleton that has not been joined to other pieces,” he said, reports The Telegraph.
He went on to say that his team discovered one that “was alive, was intact, was biological, and was in gestation,” pointing to big lumps within the supposed alien’s abdomen that he speculated were eggs.
The team was filmed doing tests on one of the bodies, which had an extended head, two slanted eyes, and a little raised nose. A Mexican UFO expert examines x-rays of ‘non-human’ entities brought to Congress.
The scientific community remains divided
The scientific community is still divided and skeptical about the authenticity of the two bodies revealed last week by Mexican journalist and UFO enthusiast Jaime Maussan.
Several UFO and forensics specialists have spoken out, calling the claims “unsubstantiated” and a “hoax.”
Among the skeptics is British physics professor Brian Cox, who has called for a sample to be given to biological tech company ’23andMe’ for independent confirmation that the specimens are extraterrestrial, according to Sky News.
“It’s very unlikely that an intelligent species that evolved on another planet would look like us,” he said last week.
The Peruvian government has launched an investigation
Another mystery is how the alien remains discovered near the Nazca Lines in Peru ended up in the possession of Maussan.
The Peruvian government has stated that they are pre-Hispanic artifacts and has added that they have begun a criminal probe into how the bodies left the country.
Maussan, 70, however, said that he is innocent and has done “absolutely nothing illegal.”
He said he would reveal all “at an appropriate time.”
