The James Webb Space Telescope is currently studying the exoplanet K2-18b, which scientists believe may harbor conditions suitable for life.
This hypothesis arises from the detection of dimethyl sulfide (DMS) in the planet's atmosphere—a gas that, under normal conditions, is produced exclusively by living organisms on Earth.
The telescope's mission is to gather more data to confirm the presence of DMS and investigate whether any life forms on K2-18b could be responsible for its production. This marks a significant step in the search for extraterrestrial life.
