In a potential landmark discovery, scientists using the James Webb Space Telescope have obtained what they call the strongest signs yet of possible life beyond our solar system, detecting in an alien planet’s atmosphere the chemical fingerprints of gases that on Earth are produced only by biological processes.
The system is at 124 light years from ours, we should be fine.
That’s like 20 days at warp 9, they could be here this year!
What’s warp 9, actually how fast can we travel?
This is a Star Trek reference:
Warp 9 is around 1000 times the speed of light lol
