Astronomers Saw a Signal of Life on Venus in Its Clouds

Venus has more volcanoes than any other planet in the Solar System – more than 1,600! An extreme greenhouse effect warms the planet’s surface up to 870˚F – hot enough to melt lead. Winds there reach the speed of 450 miles per hour in the middle cloud layer — faster than the speediest tornadoes on our planet. The pressure on Venus’s surface is 90 times higher than that at sea level on Earth. And recently, this incredible place has become even more intriguing.

In the toxic Venusian atmosphere, there’s something that might mean the existence of life! In 2017, a group of scientists from Cardiff University started to use the James Clerk Maxwell radio telescope in Hawaii. The main idea was to search for phosphine gas – it would be a sign of life on Venus. When the data came back, and the researchers analyzed it, they were shocked and even checked the results several times! So if you’ve always wondered if there’s life on other planets, check this out.
