The James Webb Telescope may have detected the biosignature of extraterrestrial life on K2-18b! Specifically, it found traces of the sulfur compound dimethyl sulfide, which is typically produced by organisms on our planet. But how did the experts manage to discover potential biomarkers in the exoplanet’s atmosphere in the first place? Can we finally answer the oldest question of humanity, whether we are really alone in the universe, with a clear no? And above all: if there really are aliens out there, why aren’t they here?
