Everyone’s buzzing about the latest 'signs of life' on distant planet K2-18b, but here’s the real tea: astronomers say we’re nowhere near confirming aliens exist. Turns out, finding life beyond Earth needs way more than a cool molecule in a planet’s atmosphere. Scientists want proof that’s strong, repeatable, and basically impossible to fake. Remember the Mars canals, Martian meteorites, or the famous 'Wow!' signal? All super hyped, but none passed the ultimate test. Until we get that gold-standard evidence, the search continues! #AlienLife #SpaceMystery #ScienceFacts #Astrobiology #WatercoolerMoment #Science
