"Chinese astronomers have detected a radio signal coming from a galaxy believed to be nearly 3 billion light-years away"

and

"While their origins are unclear, reports are suggesting it as a sign of alien life".

I haven't invested a lot of credibility in that latter claim, but isn't it gobsmacking to think of a place that's three billion light years away?

The Moon is a bit more than a light second away. Jupiter's less than a light hour away.
