Why would an advanced civilization engage in farming?

Carbon based life forms are most likely an intermediate step.

Talk about "in-the-box" thinking.

Shouldn't we just assume they play baseball and be looking for diamonds?;-)

The James Webb Space Telescope can see John Deere tractors 🚜 from that far away?

Impressive

But we’ll be looking back millions or billions of light years, so everything will be rather outdated and useless.

We’re alone, dudes. Deal with it.

It’s between you and the Lord God Almighty and the man Jesus Christ holds the keys.

Why do they believe life only works the same as ours here on the Earth? Couldn’t a different type of biochemical system have evolved somewhere else? I thought that given enough time, ANYTHING, even the most unlikely, happens.

*If* an alien world is similar to Earth of the last 100 years, and *if* they use a similar chemistry for their food production, then the the Webb *might* be able to detect certain short lived compounds from that activity in the atmosphere.

"Evidence of farming on exoplanets should be visible to James Webb Space Telescope"

Only if extraterrestrials existed, other than in the wishful thinking of grant-seeking astronomers.

Jupiter has plenty of ammonia and methane in its atmosphere. Wonder what they farm there?

This is wonderful news and will confirm there is only one planet with life, ours.

Yes, it is true.. I just got a new fruit that I never before and the package had unique writing on it. ‘Grown on Vulcan’ it also said on the package, too. 🤓

Exoplanets are inhabited by non-farming Bigfoots who always appear out of focus when viewed thru the Web telescope.
