NASA has reacted to the alleged "1,000-year-old corpses" of potential "aliens" that were <a href="https://vt.co/news/alien-bodies-discovered-mexico">unveiled in Mexico earlier this week</a>. The questionable spectacle came as Mexican lawmakers heard testimony that aliens may have already found their way to Earth, as journalist and long-time UFO enthusiast Jaime Maussan unveiled two caskets that contained tiny, human-shaped figures. Maussan claimed these remains were that of "non-human" beings that perished around 1,000 years ago. "It's the queen of all evidence. 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," Maussan said on Tuesday. The tiny "humanoids" left social media abuzz, as people have pressed experts for answers and opinions. <img class="wp-image-1263228422 size-full" src="https://img.vt.co/2023/09/GettyImages-1663869757.jpg" alt="Alien" width="1024" height="683" />[[imagecaption|| The "humanoids" were revealed to Mexican lawmakers on Tuesday.

During the conference, study chair David Spergel confessed that had only seen reports of Maussan claims on X (formerly known as Twitter), and emphasized that NASA did not "know the nature of those samples". Spergel then called on the Mexican government to make samples available to the world's scientific community for further tests and research. Dan Evans, an assistant deputy associate administrator for research, added: "One of the main things we're trying to do here today is to move conjecture and conspiracy towards science and sanity and you do that with data." Experts have also <a href="https://vt.co/news/weird/alien-experts-extraterrestrial-space">weighed in on the Maussan's</a> testimony... with many questioning the validity of what he had to show to the world. Navy Lt Ryan Graves writing on <a href="https://twitter.com/uncertainvector/status/1702023350803959988" target="_blank" rel="noopener">X</a>: "After the U.S. Congressional UFO hearing, I accepted an invitation to testify before the Mexican Congress hoping to keep up the momentum of government interest in pilot experiences with UAP (unidentified aerial phenomena). "Unfortunately, yesterday's demonstration was a huge step backwards for this issue. My testimony centered on sharing my experience and the UAP reports I hear from commercial and military aircrew through ASA's witness program. "I will continue to raise awareness of UAP as an urgent matter of aerospace safety, national security, and science, but I am deeply disappointed by this unsubstantiated stunt." And Jonti Horner, an astrobiologist at the University of Southern Queensland, reacted skeptically, stating via <a href="https://www.abc.net.au/news/science/2023-09-14/mexico-mummified-alien-corpses-debunked/102854310" target="_blank" rel="noopener">ABC.net.au</a>, "I tend to think if it looks too good to be true, it almost certainly is." The doubt should come as no surprise, as back in 2015, Maussan's claimed to have discovered a mummified alien body in Puru, which, according to fact-checking website <a href="https://www.snopes.com/fact-check/alien-mummy-peru/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Snopes</a>, was proven false... it was a small human child. <h6>Featured image credit: Anadolu Agency / Getty</h6>
