Mexican journalist to present evidence of UFO sightings

McALLEN — Mexican UFOlogist Jaime Maussan is convinced mankind will see a marked change in the year 2012.

“It could be a change in the climate or in the human being itself,” Maussan said.

Maussan, who has collected, documented and researched videos, pictures and sightings of UFOs and extraterrestrials for the past 26 years, considers the possibility of a 2012 mass destruction “a stupidity.”

“The Mayans believed that every 5,125 years there would be a change, and that period is due on Dec. 21, 2012,” said Maussan, a former anchor and reporter for the Mexican edition of 60 Minutes.

“I’m a journalist, not a scientist, and as journalist I am not prejudiced,” he said. “I collect the images that are sent to me and I present them to the public, and they are the ones that make up their minds.”

Maussan said he has evidence of UFO sightings in Mexico, Norway, Russia and South America and will present his most recent material Saturday at the McAllen Civic Center.

People from around the world send him material, but he investigates all videos and pictures before including them in his presentations, he said.

Maussan has been criticized for his work on UFOs.

“Every time you try to break a dogma, this is what happens” he said. “Try to break a dogma, and scientists will target you as a piñata.”
