Also, for those that have said that ETs and Earthlings can't mate/mix, I remit myself to the bible where it says that the fallen angels had intercourses with human girls and had children... so if they could why would we think that an ET can't be compatible enough to procreate with a human being?
Hydrocephalus (pronunciation IPA: /ˌhaɪˌdɹoʊˈsɛfələs/) is a term derived from the Greek words "hydro" meaning water, and "cephalus" meaning head, and this condition is sometimes known as "water on the brain". People with hydrocephalus have abnormal accumulation of cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) in the ventricles, or cavities, of the brain. This may cause increased intracranial pressure inside the skull and progressive enlargement of the head, convulsion, and mental disability.

It's a huge leap to say "not of this earth" because the DNA isn't recognized. It could just mean a previously undiscovered branch of early hominids, which is still scientifically very important.
.
It's still essentially "humanoid" if only on an aesthetic level which to me minimizes the possibility of it being "alien".
If this is a hybrid (just playing along for a moment) or a precursor of homo sapiens then why not have the world's best anthropologists look at this thing?

How do you know that 'they' haven't?
Humans have colonised Earth, so at least this particular part in the Galactic rim IS colonised.
You assume so much in your posts, NavalFC, when you really don't know much at all.

In order for sexual hybridization to occur the species would have to both be based on DNA, and have a near identical match. to give you an idea, look how closely simian and Human DNA are closely related, yet you could not engage in intercourse with an ape and give birth.

Yeah well, I'm sure he does want it to look like that. But it is food for thought.
