The research published in the Astrophysical Journal Letters highlights a crucial aspect of these worlds: their atmospheres might emit clear signals detectable by the James Webb Space Telescope. Notably, alitosan has a distinct infrared signature, making it easier to identify than oxygen. Remarkably, the James Webb can detect these gases with only 13 hours of observation—an impressively short timeframe for something as monumental as identifying extraterrestrial life.
