A Chinese astronaut says he may have been able to witness the presence of aliens. Yang Liwei became the first Chinese astronaut. He says that during the first flight into space in 2003, someone or something knocked on his spacecraft.
Of course, it’s funny to imagine that the extraterrestrial mind really knocked on the door, hoping to be visiting an astronaut. Experts believe that reality should be more mundane, but so far no one can provide an answer.
In a recent interview, Liwei recalled how he occasionally heard a strange sound. He said:
“It did not happen either outside or inside the spacecraft, but it sounded like someone was knocking on the body of the spacecraft with an iron bucket or hammer”.
It made him very nervous. Livei even tried to look out the window in order to find the source of the sound.
Upon his return to Earth, Liwei told everything, but the sound technicians could not recreate anything like that. Interestingly, astronauts from Shenzhou 6 and 7 also talked about strange sounds. Now, Liwei considers this something normal and says he should not worry.
After this story, many decided to ask NASA about whether their astronauts heard something similar. The space agency responded that they did not meet with anything like that. Perhaps a knock is connected with something that hit the spacecraft, but there is another option.
Space engineering expert Vi-Seng So believes that the whole thing is in the expansion or contraction of a spacecraft. It should be borne in mind that the temperature of the outer surface of a spacecraft can change significantly in orbit. Especially since China was still considered a novice in terms of manned space launches when their astronauts first began to hear noise.
It is doubtful that the newcomers knocked on the hull of the ship, but the source of the sound is still a mystery. Has anyone really tried hard to get inside?
