The NASA James Webb Space Telescope has detected potential biosignatures on planet K2-18b, located 124 light-years away, suggesting the strongest evidence yet of life outside our solar system. Scientists have identified chemicals like dimethyl sulfide (DMS) and dimethyldisulfide (DMDS), typically produced by living organisms, but emphasize the need for caution and further verification of the findings.
