Astronomers have found evidence of extraterrestrial life.

A group of astronomers has found possible signs of life on a distant planet. They claim that the exoplanet K2-18b may have the conditions necessary for life to exist. The research team from the University of Cambridge conducted an analysis of the atmosphere of this planet and discovered a molecule that usually forms only from living organisms on Earth, particularly seaweed. While scientists urge caution and emphasize the need for further observations, they believe that these findings could be the first evidence of extraterrestrial life. Research on K2-18b is ongoing, and new telescopes will continue to be used to search for signs of life on this planet and other exoplanets.

Comments from other scientists indicate that despite these intriguing results, K2-18b needs further study to confirm its habitability. Other hypotheses, suggesting that sub-Neptunes are covered with warm oceans and have an atmosphere of hydrogen, methane, and other carbon compounds, also require further experiments for verification. Thus, while finding life on other planets may be challenging, space exploration remains an important and exciting field of science.
