What We Have Been Looking For? Methane and carbon dioxide found in atmosphere of habitable-zone exoplanet

 We keeping aiming our detectors at deep space -111 light years in this instance. We might find similar results if we concentrated on closer star systems but for many astronomers 111 light years is "safely far away"

An international team of astronomers led by the University of Cambridge has used data from the NASA/ESA/CSA James Webb Space Telescope to discover methane and carbon dioxide in the atmosphere of K2-18 b, an exoplanet in the ‘Goldilocks zone’. This is the first time that carbon-based molecules have been discovered in the atmosphere of an exoplanet in the habitable zone.

The results are consistent with an ocean-covered surface underneath a hydrogen-rich atmosphere. The discovery provides a glimpse into a planet unlike anything else in our Solar System, and raises interesting prospects about potentially habitable worlds elsewhere in the Universe.

K2-18 b — which is 8.6 times as massive as Earth — orbits the cool dwarf star K2-18 in the habitable zone and lies 110 light years from Earth in the constellation of Leo. A first insight into the atmosphere of  K2-18 b came from observations with the Hubble Space Telescope but the atmospheric composition has been a subject of debate. The same researchers studied K2-18 b in 2020 and 2021, and identified it as belonging to a new class of habitable exoplanets called ‘Hycean’ worlds which could accelerate the search for life elsewhere. This prompted them to take a more detailed look with JWST, Hubble’s successor.

Using JWST’s higher resolution instruments, this new investigation has definitively identified methane and carbon dioxide in a hydrogen-rich atmosphere on K2-18 b.

The researchers also identified another, weaker, signal in the K2-18 b spectrum. After several analyses, the researchers say that the signal could be caused by a molecule called dimethyl sulphide (DMS). On Earth, DMS is only produced by life, primarily microbial life such as marine phytoplankton, suggesting the possibility of biological activity on K2-18 b. While these signs of DMS are tentative and require further validation, the researchers say that K2-18 b and other Hycean planets could be our best chance to find life outside our Solar System.

The result, which have been accepted for publication in The Astrophysical Journal Letters, will be presented today (11 September) at the First Year of JWST Science Conference in Baltimore, Maryland, USA.

'It completely changed my life': Calvin Parker, MS man allegedly abducted by aliens, has died


Parker on alien abduction: 'It's just a deal in life that happens and you don't have any control over it. Maybe if I was a little older I would've handled it better, but I wasn't and I didn't.'

Calvin Parker of Moss Point, Mississippi, one of two men who claimed to have been abducted by aliens in Mississippi in 1973, has died following a life that was dictated by the alleged event.

"It completely changed my life," Parker told the Clarion Ledger on Nov. 7, 2022. "It's just a deal in life that happens and you don't have any control over it. Maybe if I was a little older I would've handled it better, but I wasn't, and I didn't."

Parker, who was 19 at the time, said he and coworker Charles Hickson were fishing from a pier on the Pascagoula River near Pascagoula on the night of Oct. 11, 1973, when he noticed blue light reflecting off the water. He said at first he thought it was coming from law enforcement officers coming to tell them to leave the property.

Then he looked up and saw a craft that he estimated was 80 feet long with blinding light coming from it. He said it was hovering and a hissing sound was coming from it. He described it as being football-shaped.

In this Oct. 9, 2013 file photo, Calvin Parker, Jr., stands in the area where he and fellow Mississippian Charles Hickson were allegedly abducted by aliens on Oct. 11, 1973, on the banks of the Pascagoula River in Pascagoula Miss. The incident made headlines, sparked UFO sightings nationwide and became one of the most widely examined cases on record.

Parker avoided unwanted attention

Parker said the two were levitated into the craft by three aliens with hands like crab claws, examined by something that looked like a large eye and then returned to the river bank.

The two reported the incident to law enforcement and as the news spread around the world, their lives changed. Hickson, who died in 2011 at the age of 80, was very public about the incident. Parker, however, didn't embrace the attention.

UFO witnesses speak: 'The story is very true. That's what has bothered me for 45 years.'

In the years that followed, Parker said he changed jobs and relocated to other towns when people realized who he was. It was just something he didn't want to discuss.

Decades later, at the urging of his wife, Waynette, Parker wrote a book about the encounter to set the record straight.

Opening up about the night of Oct. 11, 1973

"I felt like everyone deserved an explanation," Parker told the Clarion Ledger in 2018. "Everyone has an expiration date and I wanted to get this out there before I die.

"I've had some near-death experiences and I'm in bad health. I just wanted to do it."

The book, Pascagoula — The Closest Encounter, prompted others to come forward saying they saw objects in the sky that night that couldn't be explained. Like Parker, many said they had been largely quiet about their sightings for 45 years due to fear of ridicule.

The rekindling of the story also met with favor in the city of Pascagoula. A historical marker was placed along the Pascagoula River and the city now celebrates the event with an annual alien festival in October.

While Parker spent much of his life running from that October night and the attention that came with it, months before his death he told the Clarion Ledger that in hindsight, his life was better for it in a way.

"Under the circumstances now, I'm kind of glad it did happen because I got to meet a lot of people I wouldn't have gotten to meet," he said.

Parker died Aug. 24. He was 68.

(RIP) Calvin Parker talks about his life after the 1973 Pascagoula alien...

"He kept it secret even from his own family for over 40 years" is yet again proven to be a pile of balls started by certain money grubbing Ufologists.

The Humanoids was an October-November 1966 special issue published by Flying Saucer Review. It was later released in book form. Why do I me...
