Mummified 'alien' bodies are brought back to Mexico's congress for second time ... trends now
Mexico's Congress turned to spectacle again today as alien hunters came in for a second session in which they claimed to be in possession of extraterrestrial corpses.
Controversial UFO enthusiast and journalist Jaime Maussan ushered in a string of doctors who all said the bodies were those of real, once-living organisms - some experts claimed to have studied 'five similar specimens over four years.
New photographs and X-rays were shown to Congress on Tuesday, with researchers claiming the images prove that 'they are real.'
The experts also indicated that their DNA is hybrid, suggesting the bodies were descendants of the being human.
While Mausaan and his team declared the mummified corpses, named Clara and Mauricio, 'are real,' the experts did not have an origin story and did not imply the bodies were 'extraterrestrial.'

However, the letter made clear that the team was not implying the bodies were 'extraterrestrial' but did not answer where the remains originated.
Argentine surgeon Celestino Adolfo Piotto took the stand, claiming he reviewed the results of testing done on the bodies and made the bizarre case that 'they were an evolved version of today's human beings, calling them 'our descendants.'

Maussan returned this week to press his case even further and brought a squad of medical experts who carried in a letter signed by 11 researchers from San Luis Gonzaga National University in Ica Peru declaring the same
In a more colorful moment, Mexican rapper Claudio Yarto said he had personally seen UFOs before ending his speech with a rhyme, sparking applause from the crowd.
While Maussan stood strong with his 'proof,' the presentation was criticized by many experts who dismissed it as a stunt, which appears to be the
