Did the James Webb Space Telescope really find life beyond Earth? Scientists aren’t so sure

Recent reports of the James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) detecting signs of life on a distant planet outside the solar system are unfortunately somewhat premature. This is evident from research by scientists at the University of California Riverside (UCR).

While this will disappoint all of us who are eager for confirmation of extraterrestrial life, it does not mean that the JWST will not find traces of life in the atmosphere of an extrasolar planet, or ‘exoplanet’, in the future.
