‼️Astrophysics student here, just wanted to mention that the detection for DMS in his data was about 2.4 sigma. Usually in astronomy we require 3 sigma to even consider it a reliable detection, and 5 sigma to be certain that it is not a result of some fluctuation of confounding variables. In physics, results less than 5 sigma are routinely discarded to be extra scrupulous. I think his assertion that the odds are 50/50 is bonkers and totally inflated. As far as I'm concerned, the odds are 0 until his results are replicated and confirmed by other researchers.

Considering how we began being "investigated" immediately thereafter, would indicate either there is a quicker way to observe at a distance by folding space or something or we had been under close surveillance before that event, but then there are reports of that being the case anyway But who knows if it's the same life forms we have had contact with so far, how many bioregions are there and which of them are aware of us?..

Love how he sticks to following the processes, doing the science while remaining optimistic, letting the data speak for itself. Follow up with vigorous checking of the data and the workflow, and if he and his team are right, there's going to be a lot of money suddenly interested in space research. 120ly, not quite the celestial backyard, more, the block at the end of the street.

There seems to be a little misunderstanding here. None of this is actually about life on K2-18b. When the planet was first observed in 2019, there were very tiny, ambiguous signs that maybe, just maybe, there could be Dimethylsulfide in the atmosphere of K2-18b. That's what they're looking at right now. It's just about whether this one molecule might be detectable or not. The reason that's interesting is because for all we currently know, DMS can only be produced by biological processes, on Earth it's phytoplankton, and would therefore suggest the existence of life on this exoplanet. Now there are several problems with claiming the existence of life over there based on DMS. First of all, the initial data suggesting DMS in K2-18b's atmosphere was very, very thin. It's very possible that it was just a misinterpretation. But most importantly, we don't have proof that DMS actually means life. We don't REALLY know that it's a biosignature. There were other molecules we thought couldn't exist without biological processes, like whatever we found in Venus's atmosphere recently, and then somebody came out with a purely chemical reaction that produces the stuff. It's just that here on Earth, we haven't discovered a non-biological source for DMS. Long story short, IF it turns out to actually be DMS, we MIGHT have found a biosignature, but we STILL WON'T KNOW for sure if this ACTUALLY means, "Life." If the theories are correct, K2-18b is a massive planet with a hydrogen atmosphere that's covered in deep oceans. We can't just zoom in 124 light-years and see for ourselves. Not even the new iPhone can.

If we are finding bio-markers on an exo-planet that is a mere 120 light years away, that sounds very much like a possible hint that the galaxy is simply teeming with life.

This guy is going to be millions of years old when we finally reach that planet. Welldone buddy💪

Another crazy thing about these type of discoveries is that with this planet being 120 lightyears away, what we see is the planet from 120 years ago, so we dont even know how it has developed and what it looks like in present time
