Two boxes with supposed aliens were presented in Mexico's Congress, with researchers hinting at the possibility that extraterrestrials might exist.

Two boxes with supposed aliens were presented in Mexico's Congress, with researchers hinting at the possibility that extraterrestrials might exist. The unprecedented Congress session took place almost two months after a former US Air Force intelligence officer claimed before the US Congress that his country has probably been aware of “non-human” activity since the 1930s.
The researchers, who testified under oath, hailed from Mexico, the United States, Japan and Brazil. Journalist Jose Jaime Maussan presented two boxes with supposed mummies found in Peru, which he and others consider “non-human beings that are not part of our terrestrial evolution". The shriveled bodies with shrunken, warped heads left those in the chamber aghast and quickly kicked up a social media fervour.
“It's the queen of all evidence," Maussan claimed. “That is, if the DNA is showing us that they are non-human beings and that there is nothing that looks like this in the world, we should take it as such.” But he warned that he didn't want to refer to them as “extraterrestrials” just yet.
The apparently desiccated bodies date back to 2017 and were unearthed from deep underground in the sandy Peruvian coastal desert of Nazca. The area is known for gigantic enigmatic figures scraped into the earth and seen only from a birds-eye-view. Most attribute the Nazca Lines to ancient indigenous communities, but the formations have captured the imaginations of many.
However, Congressman Sergio Gutierrez Luna of the ruling Morena party, made it clear that Congress has not taken a position on the theses put forward during the more than three-hour session.
Gutierrez Luna stressed the importance of listening to “all voices, all opinions” and said it was positive that there was a transparent dialogue on the issue of extraterrestrials. In the US in July, retired Maj. David Grusch alleged that the US is concealing a longstanding programme that retrieves and reverse engineers unidentified flying objects. The Pentagon has denied his claims.
Grusch's highly anticipated testimony before a House Oversight subcommittee was the US Congress' latest foray into the world of UAPs — or “unidentified aerial phenomena."
Meanwhile, NASA is set to hold a media briefing at 10 a.m. EDT on Thursday, September 14 to discuss the findings from an UAP independent study team it commissioned in 2022. NASA defines UAP as observations of events in the sky that cannot be identified as aircraft or known natural phenomena from a scientific perspective. About 30 minutes before the briefing, the agency will publish the team’s full report online, which aims to inform NASA on what possible data could be collected in the future to shed light on the nature and origin of UAP.
Democrats and Republicans in recent years have pushed for more research as a national security matter due to concerns that sightings observed by pilots may be tied to US adversaries.
