It all starts with a curiosity, Exoplanet with life.




We are waiting for data from the exoplanet called K2-18b, an exoplanet that we know is an aquatic planet, a water world, it is much larger than Earth and is in the range of its star and previous analyzes had detected a type of molecule that is only produced by living beings related to life forms in the ocean and we are waiting for it to be confirmed.


If it is confirmed, we would obviously have no 100% because we would have to go to that planet to confirm it 100%, but we would have almost all the votes to affirm that we have finally discovered a planet where there is life, let's hope that this year they will provide the data, that is complicated, keep in mind that to analyze the atmosphere of this exoplanet or any other, the exoplanet has to pass in front of its star and of course imagine a planet like Earth, each step is every 365 days and A single step is not enough to make a precise measurement, you need several steps, so for planets like Earth it would take years to get all the data and all the confirmations necessary to verify that that planet has an atmosphere, that it has an atmosphere. similar to the earth similar to that of the earth and to be able to detect molecules or substances that are biomarkers that are substances produced by living beings on that planet.


It is a planet as per a reference like Camino in the Star Wars saga, an ocean planet that is known and it is known that it is in the habitable area but confirmation is missing.
