Scientists have detected potential signs of life on the ocean planet K2-18b, located 124 light years away, using the James Webb Space Telescope. The discovery includes the presence of chemicals like dimethyl sulfide and dimethyl disulfide, typically produced by plankton on Earth, and the planet resides within the habitable "goldilocks zone."
