What scientific evidence was used by Carl Woese to determine there should be a separate domain for Archaea

"In the case of the Bacteria kingdom, ribosomal RNA uncovered the existence of two separate groups of bacteria, Eubacteria and Archaeabacteria. Although they looked similar on the outside, these two bacteria groups were very different on the inside. Archeabacteria differ from bacteria in cell membrane composition, DNA replication, and resistance to extreme environments. Archaea are prokaryotic, but they are not the same as bacteria. Archaea and bacteria have different cell membrane makeups and different systems for DNA replication."

Woese studied the genes of a large number of organisms.

In 1977, Woese published work showing that methane-producing microbes are not bacteria, but belong to an entirely new, third domain of life.
Woese called this third domain the Archaea meaning ancient.

What is Archea?

Archaea are microorganisms that define the limits of life on Earth.
They were originally discovered and described in extreme environments, such as hydrothermal vents and terrestrial hot springs.
They were also found in a diverse range of highly saline, acidic, and anaerobic environments.
