"Experts" Deny Alien Skeleton Is, In Fact, An Alien Skeleton

Listeners to the show know I enjoy a good story about UFOs and aliens.  I am not sure if there's anyone "out there,"but I do know this:  why would the government cover such information up?

We're often told that the government is hiding information about aliens and space craft because we would panic.  Er....look at what we've seen already in THIS world.  I doubt that the news that we are not alone would horrify us.

Still, it's more fun to cast a skeptical eye toward stories "debunking" alien "evidence" than to accept it.

That said, a group of "experts" have "debunked" evidence that a mummified alien skeleton was discovered in Chile's Atacama Desert 15 years ago.  They did so using many "techniques" recently available to "researchers."  (See how the addition of frequent quotation marks adds just the correct amount of skepticism?)

It was compared with human and primate genomes and determined to be a human female, probably a fetus, with Chilean ancestry. Although dating initially estimated the bone age of the skeleton at between 6 and 8 years, the researchers found that the remains had a rare bone-aging disorder that made them seem older than the person they belonged to.

At first, 8% of the DNA didn't match with human DNA. Researchers determined that this was because of a degraded sample. An improved analysis matched up to 98%, Nolan said. Given the exposure and age of the skeleton, this wasn't surprising. Then, they moved on to diagnosing the abnormalities.

So they found some non-human DNA and "improved" their analysis.  Hmmm.  The truth is (still) out there, people).
