<p>The world's first manned flying saucer, shaped like a UFO, took off on its first flight in the southern city of Shenzhen, China, reported local media. As per reports, the aircraft's electric vertical take-off and landing (eVTOL) can reach a maximum altitude of approximately 200 metres (656ft) after a flight time of around 15 minutes.</p>

<p>The man-made flying saucer took flight as part of the test run in southern Shenzhen city of China.&nbsp;</p>

<p>The flying saucer was developed by Shenzhen UFO Power Technology and is equipped with 12 propeller blades which surround the seat of the pilot in the very middle of the craft and has a six-hole ducted fan structure, as per Chinese news site, Shenzhen Pages.</p>

<p>"This allows it to achieve triple safety redundancy in terms of power supply, power motor, flight control, etc," it stated.</p>

<p>It took three years to develop the flying saucer and it made its debut on June 3, as per local media.&nbsp;</p>

<p>"After more than three years of research and development, Shenzhen UFO Flying Saucer Technology has manufactured the world's first electric vertical take-off manned flying saucer," wrote Chinese news site, Shenzhen Pages.</p>

<h2><strong>Flying saucer can take off from land or water</strong></h2>

<p>The futuristic-looking vehicle does not help people travel from one planet to another and can take off and land vertically either from land or water on Earth, which makes it an amphibious aircraft.</p>

A real UFO? Man-made flying saucer takes over skies of China - Watch

<p>A fish declared extinct in the wild is being successfully reintroduced to its habitat. The Tequila fish, was 'missing' from the wild since 2003. But now, more than 1500 Tequila fish have been released in the wild in Southwest Mexico and their numbers are increasing.</p>

<p>The fish were grown in a joint effort between the UK and Michoacana University in Mexico. The decades-long effort has born fruit now.</p>

<p>The project started in 1998 when scientists at the university received five pairs of fish from Chester Zoo. These fish were carefully kept in university's labs. Over the years, these fish founded a colony. The scientists carefully grew these fish by providing them required nutrition and conditions.</p>

<p>However, it is often seen that animals bred in captivity cannot survive in the wild as there are factors like predators, competition for food, adverse environmental conditions that limit their growth. Hence, 'training' is needed.</p>

<p>When the colony of Tequila fish grew to have 40 pairs in lab, scientists introduced them to an artificial pond for their 'training'. Here, the fish were subjected naturally to factors they did not encounter in the lab. The fish flourished in the artificial pond and the numbers increased to 10,000. This indicated that they were coping well to conditions.</p>

<p>It was then the scientists decided to reintroduce the fish in the wild.</p>

<p>Reintroduction of the Tequila fish can become a model for freshwater species that are currently under threat.<br />
