Aliens making noise? China's first astronaut hears mysterious noise in space

“It neither came from outside nor inside the spaceship, but sounded like someone is knocking the body of the spaceship just as knocking an iron bucket with a wooden hammer,” China’s first astronaut told China’s Central Television.

Yang Liwei,  who is China’s first astronaut and now a major general, told the TV channel that he heard a knock ‘time to time’ during his time in space.

He added that after his return to earth, he told technicians about the mysterious sound and even tried to imitate it with some instruments but no instrument made the exact sound, so the mystery remains unsolved.

“It neither came from outside nor inside the spaceship, but sounded like someone is knocking the body of the spaceship just as knocking an iron bucket with a wooden hammer,” Yang said.

Yang, born in June 1965 in northeastern Liaoning Province, is China’s first astronaut and now a major general.

In 2003, he became the first person sent into space by the Chinese space program. His mission, Shenzhou 5, made China the third country to independently send humans into space.

Liwei claimed that the sound was also heard by other Chinese astronauts.
