Webb Discovers Methane, Carbon Dioxide in Atmosphere of K2-18 b
"These initial Webb observations also provided a possible detection of a molecule called dimethyl sulfide (DMS). On Earth, this is only produced by life"

OK, it's really cool that the James Webb Space Telescope #JWST found methane and carbon dioxide in an exoplanet's atmosphere, but it also might have found dimethyl sulphide. On Earth, this molecule is only produced by life and is considered a key biosignature for planets like the one studied.

942 followers · 2308 posts · Server fosstodon.orgAs I read more of the literature about the search for life beyond Earth, one thing jumps out from time to time: "what if we discover alien intelligence and it wants to hurt us?" Shouldn't be we quiet and not let them find us? It's related to a curious answer to the Fermi Paradox called the "dark forest hypothesis." https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dark_forest_hypothesis #science #life #astrobiology #exobiology 1/12

Well worth #reading if you have an interest in #exobiology and #SciFi
I'm inspired enough to seek out the sequel now.

That Bacterium Vesicula Red had been incredibly hard to spot on that dark planet - I liked the Fonticula Campestris Smaragd on the next planet way better 🙂 #EliteDangerous #Exobiology

Scientists are abandoning conventional thinking to search for extraterrestrial creatures that bear little resemblance to Earthlings.

This article describes efforts of a (at this point theoretical!) future mission to observe Saturn's moon Enceladus and find life without needing to land.
It's an interesting theory there may be life there, based on the idea that life on Earth may have started near thermal vents in the ocean. It'd be absolutely fascinating if life had developed independently on Enceladus!

After 2 straight weeks of Thargoid Thargoid Thargoid, we figured it was time to get out of the bubble for a quick recuperation adventure.
Can't think of a better way to recoup all those precious rebuys than this.

Bacterium Informem and Stratum Tectonicas all in the same system. Both on single bio signal bodies. Nice little earners these…#EliteDangeous #exobiology
