Using the James Webb Space Telescope, scientists have found chemical traces on a distant planet, K2-18b, that may point to microbial life. The planet lies 124 light-years away in the Leo constellation and is about 2.6 times larger than Earth. While not conclusive, the detection of Earth-like biosignatures marks a major milestone in the search
