Astronomers have detected radio signals attributed to a planet beyond the solar system, according to reports from Gizmodo, Phys.org, Science News and Wired. The outlets described the observation as the first time radio emissions have been linked to a specific exoplanet.

The signals are not evidence of extraterrestrial intelligence. Wired reported that they were produced by magnetic activity, while Science News said the radio waves may point to auroras on the distant world.
