significant concentrations of sulfur dioxide in a planet's atmosphere can suggest that the planet is likely uninhabitable, allowing researchers to eliminate it from further consideration.

Declining atmospheric sulfur dioxide levels might be related to the global rise in Legionnaires' disease—a severe form of pneumonia caused by inhaling the pathogenic bacteria Legionella.

Sulfate-reducing bacteria break down a large proportion of the organic carbon in the oxygen-free zones of Earth, and in the ...

Instead, it's the opposite: Significant amounts of sulfur dioxide in a planet's atmosphere is a good sign that the world is uninhabitable and we can safely cross it off the list of candidates.
