Scientists have recently reported new evidence of phosphine gas in Venus’ atmosphere, which could suggest the presence of life on the planet.

Phosphine is a gas typically associated with decaying organic material on Earth, and its presence on Venus could potentially indicate biological processes.

The discovery, made using powerful space telescopes, builds on earlier findings from 2020 that initially faced skepticism and challenges in replication.

The atmosphere of Venus is extremely harsh, with high temperatures and corrosive sulfuric acid, making the presence of phosphine particularly intriguing.

Dave Clements, the lead researcher, stated that while the discovery is significant, it does not yet confirm the presence of life but represents an early step in the investigation, the USA Today has reported.
