Original Note:
The JWT *may* have detected a gas, dimethyl sulfide, which on Earth is produced only by living organisms. As yet the detection is unconfirmed. Also, the possibility of a nonbiological origin cannot yet be ruled out. https://www.nasa.gov/universe/exoplanets/webb-discovers-methane-carbon-dioxide-in-atmosphere-of-k2-18-b/
