Why might this discovery change everything we think about our place in the universe?
The James Webb Space Telescope has discovered traces of molecules that on Earth are only found in the presence of life. Methane, carbon dioxide... and something even more shocking - dimethyl sulfide (DMS), which is only produced by living organisms.
๐ The planet K2-18 b, 120 light years away, could be a Hycean world - with oceans, an atmosphere and the potential for life.
But can we be sure? Or is it just a cosmic illusion?
The video takes you through:
โ Recent discoveries by Cambridge scientists
โ The role of the James Webb Telescope
โ The scientific controversy over the origin of gases
โ And the connection to the mysterious planet K2-155 D, which could be Earth's mirror nightmare...
๐ Don't miss out - this could be the beginning of the greatest discovery in human history.
๐บ Watch the video to the end - and click on the suggested video to the left to find out why Earth may repeat a fatal alien fate.
