Chinese state media announced it may have detected signs of alien life via one of its state-of-the-art radio telescopes - before mysteriously deleting any trace of the report.
The now deleted announcement by the state-backed Science and Technology Daily claimed the world’s largest radio telescope, called Sky Eye, had picked up electomagnetic signals that differed from anything they had seen before.
The report cited Zhang Tonjie, chief scientist of an extraterrestrial civilization search team co-founded by Beijing Normal University, the National Astronomical Observatory of the Chinese Academy of Sciences and the University of California, Berkeley.
