According to the DNA sequencing test results recently of the Alien or Humanoid, its seems that its not human like at all. It’s DNA classification remains unknown and is unlike any other species found.
Over 560 million paired end sequence reads passed automated quality control filters and provided an estimate 19.6X coverage for the whole genome. Approximately 509million (~91%) reads were mapped to the human reference genome hg19 (providing a 17.7 fold coverage of the genome). The presence of ~9% “unmatched” DNA should not be interpreted to represent anything unusual about the specimen itself. Reasons for the lack of match can include artefacts generated during library preparation, low quality reads from the instrument, or insufficient data to allow computational alignment against the human reference standard. Further, since this sample is likely to be at the least a few decade olds, and possibly older, DNA degradation resulting in apparently “false” mutations can occur. For instance, degradation of cytosine (C) via deamination to uracil (U) would result in false interpretation of a C residue as thymidine (T) and a resulting guanine (G) misread as adenine (A) on the opposite strand.
Reconstruction of the mitochondrial DNA sequence and analysis shows an allele frequency consistent with a B2 haplotype group found on the west coast of South America, supporting the claimed origination of the specimen from the Atacama Desert region of Chile.
and that this one of the examples of alien life that maybe visiting earth

What makes you think it is not human? The Stanford University yests showed it WAS human!

Only thing I am disappointed in is the size of the little alien. I was kinda hoping for something a little larger, more Spock size. Am definitely glad it is not grey. Grey is such a drab color . So I guess now we can toss out the greys? In with the little ones, can you imagine a ship full? Glad this was finally conclusive, now we can move on to the next mystery.
