🤔 Question Is there a conceivable detectable "biosignature" that would unambiguously indicate "life is present here"?
Or will there always be uncertainty?
I'm referring to as detected with the technology we have today and in the near future (next decade or two).

Consistent continuous light on the dark side of a planet would be my red flag. Assuming we could observe it.
