Alien Baby, Hoax or Real?

My dad told me of some story about an Alien Baby, and I didn't know whether it was real or not so I took a look. The picture itself convinced me because it's like nothing I have ever seen.

Here is the article and the picture:






IS this bizarre creature really an alien baby or just part of an elaborate hoax - and was it the cause of a mysterious revenge death?

Mexican TV revealed the almost unbelievable story - in 2007, a baby 'alien' was found alive by a farmer in Mexico.

He drowned it in a ditch out of fear, and now two years later scientists have finally been able to announce the results of their tests on this sinister-looking carcass.

At the end of last year the farmer, Marao Lopez, handed the corpse over to university scientists who carried out DNA tests and scans.

He claimed that it took him three attempts to drown the creature and he had to hold it underwater for hours.

Tests revealed a creature that is unknown to scientists - its skeleton has characteristics of a lizard, its teeth do not have any roots like humans and it can stay underwater for a long time.

But it also has some similar joints to humans.

Its brain was huge, particularly the rear section, leading scientists to the conclusion that the odd creature was very intelligent.

But it has seemingly left experts stumped.

And in a further mystery, Lopez has since mysteriously died.

According to American UFO expert Joshua P. Warren (32), the farmer burned to death in a parked car at the side of a road.

The flames apparently had a far higher temperature than in a normal fire!

Now there are rumours that the parents of the creature Lopez drowned were the ones who in turn killed him out of revenge.

There are frequent UFO sightings and reports of crop circles in the area where the creature was found. Perhaps it was left behind deliberately by aliens.

Mexican UFO expert Jaime Maussan (56) was the first to break the story. He claimed it was not a hoax. Farmers also told him that there was a second creature but it ran away when they approached.

The puzzle has caused intrigue amongst BILD’s readers. Some say it is a mutant, others wonder why aliens would leave a baby behind - and one reader asked why aliens don’t wear clothes.

And the bizarre story has reached as far as South Korea and China!

Mexico isn't the only hotspot of apparent extra-terrestrial activity, either - Germany has had 366 UFO sightings this year!

"There's a baby from an intelligent extraterrestrial civilization on our farm. What do we do?"

"Drown it?"

"Sounds good to me. You get started and I'll grab us some tequila."

Anyway, it's almost certainly BS. If that Youtube video were accurate, this would be a huge deal and top institutions across the world would be getting photos and data on it.

Considering the massive financial (and energy) cost of space travel, how likely is it that aliens from a distant galaxy would come hovering over our planet with flying metal discs (which by the way wouldn't be the most intelligent design for a spaceship)?

Even if an alien race would find enough interest in our planet and the species upon it, don't you think there should be outrageously many more UFO sightings?  I mean look at how many people the gold rush lured accross the ocean to make a profit.

People just want to believe.  This is like a new 'religion' in many ways.  Just like with religion, there is no hard evidence to back any of those UFO stories up.  Though there are many similarities with religion I consider it to be quite harmless.  Kind of funny though

Assume the alien is real, and from outer space.

Therefore the alien race is intelligent enough to have developed space travel and to have come to Earth.

This same alien race left one of thier members behind and who was then captured and drowned by a farmer.

So the alien race is intelligent but also quite stupid.

We have reached a contradiction.

Therefore our initial assumption was false, hence it is not an alien.

(And how exactly do you take a perfect picture of an 'alien', who is in the act of working, when it is dead?)

They only think it might be an alien because it is bald and has a smooth head.

why are you talking about a financial cost? what makes you think aliens would have a monetary system? or even would make exchanges?

Not that I give credit to UFO sightings being aliens, but this is a pretty arrogant deduction considering we aren’t anywhere remotely close to interstellar travel (if one would even travel by conventional means at all). A compact metal jet seemed like an absurd notion during the days of dual-winged planes, and even more absurd during the days of hot air balloons, and yet here we are using them. Who knows what the craft would look like?

Resources and power sources are scarce and require time and effort to extract or transform before you can make use of them.  This makes them valuable, which means you don't even need a monetary system to understand that you simply have to make choices about how you use your resources.  Since the common idea about alien transportation is that of flying saucers, they must have some propulsion system, conventional or not and require a power source to operate.  Which means space travel would be very expensive either way.

What I mean to say is it's highly unlikely that an alien species will want to waste large amounts of time and energy to go about flying around our planet like it is some kind of zoo.  If they would come here, it would mean they need something our planet provides.  If that were the case, there wouldn't be rare sightings every now and then, they would be all over the planet.

You're right about the fact that we're not capable of interstellar travel yet.  Considering the distance you would need to travel, conventional engines would be too slow.  Theoretically it should be possible to bend space-time and to leap forward in space to distant places.  However, this kind of travel would require massive amounts of energy.  Besides that, you would probably need a secondary transport-system for short distances, not to mention the amount of supplies and power reserve you need to take along, assuming we're not talking about a one way trip.  I fail to see what would be arrogant about this reasoning.

Love it how people say they're open-minded and double-check their facts, but then they show how much they have blind-faith in "top institutions across the world".

I beg to disagree: how the hell do you know that they are not "the most efficient"? I think they probably are far more efficient, if it is true, than wasteful rocket thrusting.

Theoretically, your physics is wrong.

Quote:

Alien physics =/= human physics.

But in conclusion I don't think it's real, but I do think aliens have visited the Earth

this is not the same thing, but is 100% true starchild
The details in the vid are interesting, but it leaves some very intriguing facts like how we are sure it is a bone but it reacts to certain chemicals unlike any other bone we have ever had.


About said title and focus, a credible sources I know that works in things of that exact nature, took no interest in that. I would bet it is considered a hoax to experts, I could be wrong, but that is the only reason they wouldn't file information on that alien baby I can think of.

People discovered a big rat a week ago in New Guinea and it made mainstream news. Yet they find a baby alien and it's banished to a small corner of Youtube and just a few articles when you google it? Pardon me if my BS detector is tingling. And of course it would be reviewed by top institutions around the world. Where do you think the data would go? To a pizzeria?

there are way less interesting things, doing much less for scientific research, that are categorized in multiple sites. Forgive me for being a skeptic, because they have not commented on the alien baby, but they would if it was proven real.

Like I said, maybe they just overlooked it but that is unlikely since it is their business to update everything relevant as soon as possible.
