Organic molecules – in the form of methane – have been detected on a planet outside our solar system for the first time. The giant planet lies too close to its parent star for the methane to signal life, but the detection offers hope that astronomers will one day be able to analyse the atmospheres of Earth-like worlds.

The observations confirm an earlier tentative detection of water vapour and reveal the presence of methane gas.

So at first they find water. Now they find methane gas and confirm the water! This is one very exciting place! Even though this does not directly indicate it will be any more complex then it is, it is giving me hopes that we will find more and more like it as we continue to look. I for one am very excited!
