In April, a team of scientists based at the
University of Cambridge claimed that a planet
orbiting a distant star bore a possible
signature of life.
But the new observations have failed to confirm
evidence for life.
In the original study, the
Cambridge team claimed that K2-18b appeared to
have a gas in its atmosphere that on Earth is
produced only by living things. The NASA study
did not find strong evidence for that gas.
WhatrCOs more, the NASA team argues that even if
the gas was on K2-18b,
it might have formed
through mere chemistry.
What once seemed like
a promising clue of life rCo a biosignature rCo
might be a mirage.

Talking about this story:
https://archive.is/ApwLm
This was confirmation of a previous analysis of the
very same planet.
The planet has been of special interests since at
least 2015. It was considered a candidate for life
back then. They detected Dimethyl sulfide in the
atmosphere two years ago, or at least that's when
it was reported, and they confirmed the findings
again in April.
Dimethyl sulfide is a VERY tasty biosignature
because, unlike most biosignatures, we know of
no non-biological means to produce it. They also
found other "Biosignatures" but this dimethyl
sulfide is so exciting because, as far as anyone
knows, it can only come from life.
Well. It can be the result of industrial emissions,
yes, but those in turn are the product of biological
activity i.e. man.
So they found MORE THAN ONE biosignature and even
got a confirmation of this all important Dimethyl
sulfide signature. And...
But the new observations have failed to confirm
evidence for life.
This is not true. Read the cite.
We have a detection of biosignatures. We have a
confirmation of those biosignatures. And then we
have a "Failed to Confirm."
It's been confirmed. At least twice now.
In the original study, the
Cambridge team claimed that K2-18b appeared to
have a gas in its atmosphere that on Earth is
produced only by living things. The NASA study
did not find strong evidence for that gas.
This is stating that they found evidence for the gas.
"Strong" is the word you need to take note of. They
are NOT saying that they did not find evidence, they
are saying that they did find evidence but it's not
very "Strong."
So we have three studies finding evidence for this
Dimethyl sulfide....
WhatrCOs more, the NASA team argues that even if
the gas was on K2-18b,
There are ZERO non biological sources on the planet
earth. There are ZERO known non biological sources.
The gas was found in 2023. They confirmed that finding
in April. Now NASA just found evidence for that gas though
they say it's not "Strong" evidence... and that a gas with
ZERO non biological sources could have resulted from a
non biological source....
They are lying. Again.
NASA is phenomenally consistent with the denial of any
evidence for life outside of earth. I've already been
over this in the example of Mars...
it might have formed
through mere chemistry.
It's not know to have EVER come into existence from a
non biological source.
What once seemed like
a promising clue of life rCo a biosignature rCo
might be a mirage.
Actually, it looks more like NASA is actively squashing
the story. The exact same NASA that went searching for life
on Mars using optics that can't even see bacterial life on
earth, most of it anyway, or any suspected like on Mars (the
famous structures within the Mars Rock) is telling you that
a biosignature with precisely ZERO known non-biological
sources may have originated from a non-biological source, and
that's why a second confirmation (at least) of biosignatures
is not any kind of confirmation....
But even their claims here, which as incredibly misleading,
do imply that they found alien life.
NASA found evidence for that life!-a They say it's not
"Strong" evidence but even "Less than strong evidence" is
still evidence, AND TOGETHER WITH THE PREVIOUS FINDINGS
strengthens the claim that we have found a life bearing
world.
NASA is a government agency. They do not exist to inform you.
They exist to carry out policy, not make it.

Of course they are. This is not random and it's not unique.
NASA is very consistent in lying about any evidence for life
outside of the earth.

Wow. You are SO! LUCKY! you have no reading comprehension, or you'd
be awfully embarrassed right now...
They found evidence for life. They confirmed that evidence for life.
And then NASA says, "Yeah, we also found evidence but it's not that
strong, so we're pretending we found none."
Truth is "Strong" is a value judgment and, as used here, undefined.
But "Evidence" would be a fact -- true or false -- and even NASA
is saying "True," that there is evidence.
So all evidence is consistent with life.
AND, not only is NASA lying about that but, they are lying when they
say that the evidence could come from simple chemical reactions and
not life. They have ZERO evidence but they do have evidence for it not
being true:-a Life on earth.
NASA is consistent in it's denial of life outside of earth. They
are consistent liars.

These discussions usually leave out one critical phrase -
"life as we know it".
However it is possible there is a lot of life as we don't
know it and such life could leave signs we cannot recognize.
It is all guesswork on all sides until we actually go and
see.

Yes but no you're "Arguing" for what we don't know, instead of
what we know. This happens a lot about UFO "enthusiasts."
Us: "You can't travel faster than the speed of light."
UFO nutter: "We don't know! They're aliens. We don't know.
Maybe they can. Maybe they got super advanced alien tech we
don't know about!"
The problem is, this "Arguing" out of ignorance doesn't know
how to distinguish between "We don't know how to do that" and
"As far as we know, that can't be done."
We do NOT know how to travel 80% of the speed of light. But,
as far as we know, it's impossible to travel at the speed of
light.
maybe europa or enceladus or few hundred meters inside mars?

Dimethyl sulfide has been detected in comets
[24] IT HAS ALSO BEEN SYNTHESIZED ABIOTICALLY IN
THE LABORATORY.
[25] For comet 67P/Churyumov-Gerasimenko, the European
Space Agency sampled the cloud of dust and gas shed from the comet.
[24]
[26] DIMETHYL SULFIDE HAS ALSO BEEN MADE ABIOTICALLY IN LABORATORIES
[27] These comet-based discoveries contradict
the suggestion that dimethyl sulfide is an indicator of life on other planets.[28][25][29][30]
The James Webb Space Telescope has possibly detected evidence of DMS in
the atmosphere of the exoplanet K2-18b.[31][32][33][34]

Dimethyl sulfide has been detected in comets
Lol!-a Been on a lot of comets, huh?
This comet theory is fascinating for a number of reasons.
The first is that Dimethyl sulfide does not stay in an
atmosphere for long, so if it came from a comet it would
have to be recent. It would also have to be a BIG comet,
absolutely huge...
This claim of finding it in a comet though mirrors other
claims. For instance, there was a 100% fool proof test
for settling all arguments over whether or not 3 billlion
year old plus structures inside of rocks are fossils or
just rocks. And they found that they were indeed fossils!
Until the famous Mar's Rock passed the same test. Oh,
the test on the earth rocks in still fool proof though...
But it's just stupid. Nobody would have a problem with
the idea of Dimethyl sulfide being found in comets, the
same way our water is, but, again, it would need to be
VERY recent and it would need to be HUGE.
[24] IT HAS ALSO BEEN SYNTHESIZED ABIOTICALLY IN THE LABORATORY.
Which requires biology. This is something you would already know
if you had reading comprehension:-a A human, a living thing is
what synthesized it!
[25] For comet 67P/Churyumov-Gerasimenko, the European Space Agency
sampled the cloud of dust and gas shed from the comet.
This is just repeating the same claim you made earlier.
It's padding...
[24] [26] DIMETHYL SULFIDE HAS ALSO BEEN MADE ABIOTICALLY IN LABORATORIES
And this was the second claim that you made.
You're pretending to have made four points when you didn't.
[27] These comet-based discoveries contradict the suggestion that
dimethyl sulfide is an indicator of life on other planets.[28][25][29]
[30]
No they don't. They can't. For starters, if they meant that much
you wouldn't have repeated them, pretending you have four points.
Secondly, it is a biosignature, it is evidence for life. And what's
more, together with other biosignatures it's very good evidence.
Being retarded, you think something all by itself has to be rock
solid proof or it isn't evidence. Well it is evidence. And it's
very strong evidence.
The James Webb Space Telescope has possibly detected evidence of DMS
in the atmosphere of the exoplanet K2-18b.[31][32][33][34]
Several reviews have confirmed it, and even NASA in it's denial
doesn't exclude it.
Which means it was found three times, at least.

Dimethyl sulfide is NOT an unambiguous signal of biological life!
Period.-a Ergo, it is possible that completely non-biological
