Mexico City's Congress witnessed a remarkable event on Tuesday where two alleged mummified "alien corpses" were put on display in the presence of scientists and researchers of extraterrestrial(ET) beings. The event was spearheaded by Jaime Maussan who claims to be an expert on Unidentified Flying Objects(UFOs) and ETs.

Maussan is a Mexican journalist who claims to be a UFOlogist. He has worked for renowned Mexican media like TV Azteca and 60 minutes.

According to their report, the mummified corpse was of a human child. Due to these reasons, Maussan is considered to be a hoax promoter.

Maussan's speech and claims

During the display of two alleged mummified "alien corpses" at Mexico City's Congress on Tuesday, Maussan and scientists were present. Maussan claimed the corpses to be around 1000 years old and were retrieved from Cusco, Peru. He has also claimed that more than 30% of the specimens’ DNA was ‘unknown’.

Addressing members of the Mexican government and US officials at the event, Maussan said under oath, "These specimen are not part of our terrestrial evolution... These aren't beings that were found after a UFO wreckage. They were found in diatom (algae) mines, and were later fossilised."

Maussan claimed that the specimens were analysed by the Autonomous National University of Mexico (UNAM). As per his claims, scientists were able to extract DNA from the specimens and used radiocarbon dating to determine age.

During the event, Maussan also said, "‘The public has a right to know about non-human technology and non-human entities. We are talking about a topic that unites humanity, not separates us."

"We are not alone in this vast universe, we should embrace this reality," he added.

At the event, Maussan also showed several videos purpotedly of UFOs and unidentified anomalous phenomena(UAP). Experts showed X-rays of the specimens and claimed that one of the bodies has “eggs” inside. They claimed both specimens have implants made of very rare metals, such as Osmium.
