The article explain it "concrete evidence of photochemistry – chemical reactions initiated by light hitting a planet's atmosphere." so he might just have read the keywords

Yes why ? It's when the star winds interact with the planet athmospere and create new particuls

Reply to Could they move ice from the planets to Earth? by zephyer19
I think we could harvest it yes but there's some issues :
- when approching the sun the ice would sublimate well before arriving close to earth orbit
- it would cost so much money than even for the rarest elements found on earth it's still cheaper to look for them here
