In a groundbreaking study, scientists utilizing the James Webb Space Telescope have detected what they describe as the strongest signs yet of potential life on exoplanet K2-18 b, located approximately 124 light-years from Earth in the constellation Leo. Researchers found chemical signatures of two gases, dimethyl sulfide (DMS) and dimethyl disulfide (DMDS), which are typically produced by biological processes on Earth, particularly by marine microorganisms, according to lead author Nikku Madhusudhan from the University of Cambridge. K2-18 b, categorized as a "hycean world," is situated in the habitable zone of its star, where conditions could allow for liquid water, a crucial ingredient for life. Researchers emphasized caution, noting that these findings indicate a possible biosignature but not conclusive evidence of life. Madhusudhan remarked that the data is a significant development in astrobiology, yet additional observations and analyses are necessary to confirm these results. Other experts, including Christopher Glein from the Southwest Research Institute, echoed the need for careful validation of the data before reaching definitive conclusions regarding extraterrestrial life.

A family in Rochester, New York, is grappling with the shocking revelation that their missing loved one, Shanice Crews, who they believed to have died from a drug overdose, is alive. The misidentification occurred after police found a body in February 2024 and erroneously reported it to her family, leading them to hold a memorial service and cremate what they thought were her remains. According to reports, Crews, 28, had been missing since July 6, 2021, and police informed her family of her “death” based on an autopsy that cited high levels of cocaine. Shanica Hopkins, Crews' sister, expressed her disbelief upon receiving the news, describing the experience of reading the autopsy report as traumatic. The situation took a bizarre turn in November 2024 when a stranger sent Hopkins a picture of Crews, stating she was alive and had participated in a volunteer event. Despite confirming the identity of the cremated remains, the Monroe County Medical Examiner's Office offered to reimburse the family for the funeral expenses. However, the family is seeking legal representation instead, asserting that the initial mishandling of the case was deeply distressing.

Harpreet Singh, also known as Happy Passia, has been arrested in the United States after allegedly entering the country illegally. Singh is considered one of India’s most wanted terrorists, associated with 14 bombings across Punjab over the past six months, according to sources from Indian security forces. The FBI released images of Singh in custody after U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement apprehended him. Singh, who reportedly used burner phones to avoid detection, is linked to a series of attacks on police establishments in Amritsar, some of which he claimed responsibility for via social media. In India, authorities previously placed a reward of ₹500,000 (approximately $6,000) for information leading to his capture. Investigations suggest Singh collaborated with Pakistan’s intelligence agency, ISI, and the militant group Babbar Khalsa International. Recent targets include a YouTuber's residence and the house of BJP leader Manoranjan Kalia in Jalandhar, highlighting Singh's persistent threat to regional security.
