A breakthrough discovery in EXOPLANET can be seen in aliens.

British scientists would have found the most powerful evidence beyond our solar system.

The discovery of the distant alien planet K2-18B was presented at a press conference at Cambridge University on Tuesday.

Led by the University of Cambridge, this study was found by Professor NIKKU MADHUSUUN. detect Chemical signature of dimethyl sulfide (DMS) and dimethyl di sulfide (DMD) in the atmosphere of K2-18B.

Madhusudhan said in a video presentation in the video presentation, “This is a very important molecule because DMS is unique on the planet. Microorganisms in the sea such as birds and plant plankton.”

“Theoretical study predicted that for the past 20 years, molecules, such as DMS, will be a powerful biomarker in alien systems, including planets rich in hydrogen.”

The discovery of K2-18B is part of the space agency and part of the distant planetary exploration of academia. July patient Rover said “Cheyava Falls“In Jezero crater.

The rock contains organic molecules, and a new clue is provided for continuous hunting for past or present life beyond the earth.

K2-18B has a red dwarf star, about 124 trillion miles away from Earth. The mass of the earth is about 8.6 times and the radius is about 2.6 times larger.

It is in the area where the planet, such as Earth, can potentially support life.

Read the signs

Scientists studied the atmosphere of K2-18B using the Public Transportation Breeding Act. As the planet passes in front of the star, some Starlights are filtered through the atmosphere. By analyzing which wavelengths are absorbed, scientists can determine the composition of the atmosphere.

Madhusudhan said, “Some of the starlights pass through the atmosphere of the earth before reaching the telescope, and the molecules of the atmosphere absorbs a specific wavelength.” If the earth is in front of the star or not, it can be extracted how much absorption is in the earth.

In 2023, researchers using James Webb Space Telescope reported in the range of 1 to 5 microns of infrared spectrum used to detect heat and molecular signature while reporting the temporary detection of dimethyl paid in the atmosphere of K2-18B.

The researchers are convinced of DMS’s “3 sigma” detection in K2-18B, but Madhusudhan, a statistical trust level that shows powerful results, emphasized the need for further observation to confirm the results.

“This is one of the most profound moments as an astronomer. For the first time in the history of our species, we see signs of life elsewhere.”

But Madhusudhan admitted that the signal could occur in an unknown chemical process that was not related to life. Nevertheless, Madhusudhan remained optimistic about the discovery of alien life and its influence.

“We are seeing a new chemical process that can live on Earth, so it’s possible in the theoretical study in a monumental breakthrough study,” he said.

“This is not only a planetary science that can find our place as a servant as well as astronomy, as well as astronomy.”
