Scientists Solve Mystery Of Bizarre 'Alien' Body Found 18 Years Ago

A tiny skeleton found inside an abandoned church by treasure hunters in 2003 continued to baffle scientists for almost two decades. It appears that the mystery of its alien-like skeleton has been finally solved.

Inviting curiosity due to its cone-shaped head and missing ribs, scientists were initially unable to process the remainsTurns out, the remains with cone-shaped 6-inch skull and only 10 ribs belonged to a baby that died about 40 years ago.

The allure of unverified information

Found by treasure hunter Oscar Muño in an abandoned church in the mining town of La Noria in Chile's Atacama Desert. When found, the skeleton was so tiny that was tucked away in a small leather pouch - wrapped in white cloth and tied over with a ribbon.

When it was reported that 8 per cent of the DNA was not human, scientists were really in a fix.

In 2018, scientists from Stanford Univeristy, San Francisco and the University of California said that the skeleton remains belonged to a baby that died about 40 years ago.

Turns out, the baby had genetic disorders that gave it the alien-like appearance. In addition, its physical features pointed to dwarfism. Scientists believe that the baby was either born prematurely or died right after birth.

Calling it a "sensationalised story", a professor from Stanford, Garry Nolan said that their follow-up research was done "out of a desire to bring some humanity to this discussion and dignity to the skeleton."

Regardless, it's clear now that the remains are not extraterrestrial and very human.

NASA's Shocking Discovery: Alien Planet Found 3 Days Ago, Cover-Up Revealed

For decades, conspiracy theorists and UFO enthusiasts have claimed that NASA has been hiding the truth about extraterrestrial life and the existence of alien planets. These claims have often been dismissed as mere speculation, but recent developments suggest that there may be more to the story than we previously thought. According to sources within NASA, the agency has recently made a groundbreaking discovery of an alien planet located in a distant solar system. The planet, which is said to be inhabited by intelligent alien beings, was discovered just three days ago by NASA scientists using state-of-the-art telescopes and other astronomical equipment. However, instead of announcing the discovery to the public, NASA has decided to keep the information under wraps and hide it from the world. This decision has sparked outrage and disbelief among many scientists, researchers and members of the public who believe that the discovery of an alien planet is a matter of global importance a...

JUST-IN: NASA Detects Radio Signal from Proxima Centauri

Scientists studying archival data collected by the Parkes radio telescope in Australia say they have found a radio signal that came from the direction of Proxima Centauri, the closest star to Earth. Proxima Centauri has at least one planet that may be habitable to life as we know it. There is a slim chance that the signal came from extraterrestrial beings, though other explanations are far more likely. Extraordinary claims require extraordinary evidence, and no one—including the astronomers analyzing the data—are claiming they’ve found aliens. A paper analyzing the findings is not expected to be published until early 2021, so there’s a lot we don’t know. But as is often the case with exciting science results, the news leaked early:  The Guardian   broke the story  on 18 December, the scientists involved  spoke publicly to  Scientific American , and experts at the SETI Institute  have   reacted . Finding life beyond Earth  is one of The Planetary S...
