New Clues About Life Beyond Earth

Scientists using the James Webb telescope have found exciting evidence that might indicate life on K2-18 b, a planet 124 light-years away.

They detected dimethyl sulfide and disulfide in the planet's atmosphere; these chemicals are usually created by living things on Earth.

While it's not conclusive proof of alien life, this is the strongest evidence we’ve ever had for life beyond our solar system.

The discovery, though significant, requires further investigation to confirm the presence of life and rule out other possibilities.
