Could K2-18 b be the breakthrough in our search for life beyond Earth? This extraordinary exoplanet, 124 light-years away, lies in the habitable zone and is 2.6 times the size of Earth. Using the James Webb Telescope, NASA detected carbon-bearing molecules like methane, carbon dioxide, and traces of dimethyl sulfide (DMS)—a molecule on Earth only produced by life.
While K2-18 b might hold oceans or high-pressure ice beneath its atmosphere, the question remains: could it support life as we know it? Join us as we unravel this fascinating discovery and explore what it means for the future of space exploration.
