Using data of tau Boo b
collected with the Near
Infrared Echelle Spectrograph (NIRSPEC) instrument at the W. M. Keck Observatory in Hawai'i, the researchers were able to compare the molecular signature of water to the light
spectrum emitted by the planet, confirming that the atmosphere did indeed include water vapor.

Bond - stretching motions in the molecules»
infrared spectra are too similar to parse, and many PAHs lack strong polarity, making signatures in their rotational
spectra — typically
collected with radio telescopes — difficult to detect.
