00:00Could this be it?
00:02New planetary discovery fuels hopes for extraterrestrial life.
00:06The idea of extraterrestrial life on other planets has fascinated us for centuries.
00:11It has even become a staple of pop culture, referenced in everything from science fiction
00:16movies to cartoons and songs.
00:19While the idea may seem intriguing, we cannot know if any contactable life would even be
00:23on the same evolutionary level as us.
00:29Despite the rarity of planets with life-supporting environments, the existence of extraterrestrial
00:34life on some distant planets remains a possibility, suggesting that life could exist beyond Earth.
00:44The search for alien life is uncertain, as early Earth life comprised single-cell organisms.
00:50Discoveries like phosphine on Venus suggest life, though often prove false.
00:55Search signals are rare yet crucial for scientists investigating extraterrestrial life.
01:04A team of scientists recently published a paper announcing that they had detected something
01:08noteworthy on an exoplanet known as K218b.
01:12K218b might be a Neptune-like Hyacian world with an ocean.
01:16If confirmed, dimethyl sulfide presence indicating marine algae could transform our understanding
01:22of extraterrestrial life in the universe.
