It’s going to fall within the scientific mission of JWST. So it could be exoplanet or even solar system atmospheric footprints that are hard to explain without biology. It did several observations of Trappist-1, for instance. Or even seeing types of stars before now only theorized like the darker specimens or even a strange (matter) star.

Edit-You can see where JWST was pointed and when at the following. It goes one week at a time. The data is either immediately publicly available or withheld for one year for the requesting scientists. https://www.stsci.edu/jwst/science-execution/observing-sched...

If it isn’t clear I’m a total JWST fanboy then let me just say it. I am an absolute JWST fanboy. I think telescopes have the best potential for widening fields like physics, chemistry, and more. This because ever increasing probes of QM require either astronomically large particle accelerators or unknown ways of accelerating particles. Further, the universe is absolutely huge and capable of much greater variety than anything we can engineer. So sitting back and taking notes is appropriate.
