New Study Challenges Signs of Life on Exoplanet K2-18b
A bold claim of alien life on exoplanet K2-18b is now under scrutiny as a new analysis finds the data too weak to support earlier detections of dimethyl sulfide — a potential biosignature. Experts urge caution, noting that more robust, peer-reviewed evidence is needed before confirming the presence of life or habitable conditions on the planet.

Astronomers Discover Closest Known Molecular Cloud to Earth
Astronomers have discovered Eos, a massive, crescent-shaped molecular cloud only 300 light-years from Earth, making it the closest known cloud of its kind. Unlike most molecular clouds, Eos contains little carbon monoxide, which is typically used to detect such formations. Instead, it was found by tracking the faint glow of hydrogen. Shaped by cosm...
