Not that exciting until they find other different biomarkers.

Dead Comets have DMS: https://arxiv.org/abs/2410.08724

And the interstellar medium.... "On the abiotic origin of dimethyl sulfide: discovery of DMS in the Interstellar Medium" - https://arxiv.org/abs/2501.08892

"...Although the chemistry of DMS beyond Earth is yet to be fully disclosed, this discovery provides conclusive observational evidence on its efficient abiotic production in the interstellar medium, casting doubts about using DMS as a reliable biomarker in exoplanet science..."

This planet is 2.6x larger than Earth and has concentrations of DMS "thousands of times stronger than the levels on Earth".

It would take a lot of cometary impacts to seed the entire ocean with that much.

From the paper [1]:

> Therefore, sustaining DMS and/or DMDS at over 10–1000 ppm concentrations in a steady state in the atmosphere of K2-18 b would be implausible without a significant biogenic flux. Moreover, the abiotic photochemical production of DMS in the above experiments requires an even greater abundance of H2S as the ultimate source of sulfur—a molecule that we do not detect
