 Is There Life Present On K2-18b Exoplanet? New Observations Provide Insights

Recent observations of the exoplanet K2-18b using the James Webb Space Telescope have revealed intriguing signs of potential life, including the presence of carbon-bearing molecules like methane and carbon dioxide, and a possible detection of dimethyl sulfide (DMS)—a gas primarily produced by life on Earth. These findings suggest K2-18b could host a hydrogen-rich atmosphere over an ocean-covered surface, resembling a "hycean" world. However, scientists urge caution, as the evidence is not yet conclusive, with alternative explanations and data uncertainties remaining. Further observations are needed to confirm any signs of biological activity.
