Oh, please. If they were really alien they wouldn't have any DNA in common with us at all. And until samples of the "aliens" are provided to multiple scientists and labs across the globe for peer review, this is just horseshit wishful thinking.

There were many independent scientists there to verify. There will be more to verify as samples are sent out.

We've got a planet full of intelligent beings we're busy killing off, so we've never been alone. We're just too speciesist to accept their existence as our equals.

If there were aliens and they had any sense at all they'd quarantine our planet and never let us off it.

You ever thought that aliens might be doing the killiing

Get real. There's no having a rational discussion, you're not rational.

I'm going to wait for an actual publishment to release notes/observations and not a wanna be tumblr blog post.

These have been debunked years ago, and their testing methods are nonsense. For instance:

Tellingly, if the bodies were aliens, then carbon-14 dating would be useless. "Radiocarbon dating is based on Carbon 14 atoms which are created when the sun's radiation strikes the Earth's upper atmosphere," David Anderson, an assistant professor of anthropology who has written about pseudoarchaeology extensively at Radford University in Virginia, told Live Science in an email. "To radiocarbon date extraterrestrial beings, we would have to know what the rate of production of 14-C was on their home planet, not ours."

Also

bodies "have been debunked on the basis of anatomy," with studies showing that some of the bodies "are human mummies that had been deliberately manipulated to appear alien,"

Carbon dating is just one peice. It is extremely expensinve and will be done. But yeah the most critical piece is the dna which was documented proving they are not sheep skulls like the lying media said

The lack of a full explanation does not make them aliens. The discredited evidence alone should give pause to these so called experts opinions.
