John Wheeler: Astronomers have found stronger evidence of life on another planet
FARGO — The search for extra-terrestrial life has discovered what might be the best indication of success so far. On a planet known as K2-18b, that orbits a star about 120 light years away from Earth, astronomers have found evidence of dimethyl sulfide, a compound made of sulfur, carbon and hydrogen that is known on Earth to be associated with marine algae. Dimethyl sulfide is the chemical responsible for the smell of boiling cabbage and is a pa…
Astronomers Detect Strongest Evidence Yet of Alien Life on Distant Planet
(LOOTPRESS) – Astronomers have identified the strongest signs yet that life might exist beyond our solar system — and it’s coming from a planet 124 light years away in the Leo constellation. Using data from the James Webb Space Telescope, an international team of researchers detected chemical traces in the atmosphere of exoplanet K2-18b that may point to the presence of microbial life. The findings, published in The Astrophysical Journal Letters…
