Interplanetary hoppers: Microbes from Earth may have reached Venus by hitchhiking on asteroids
If Venusian life does exist, it may have originated from Earth: An interplanetary hopper hitched a ride with an asteroid that grazed Earth’s upper atmosphere and landed on Venus. Researchers from Harvard University — astronomy professor Avi Loeb and student Amir Siraj — proposed the idea after a group of scientists recently detected signatures of phosphine. Microorganisms can produce […]

Astronomers detect signs of life on Venus
An international team of researchers found evidence of a gas on Venus that could indicate the planet may harbor life. The gas in question is phosphine, a colorless chemical compound that smells like garlic or decaying fish. It is commonly produced by microorganisms on Earth in the absence of oxygen or by the breakdown of organic matter. The team […]

Recently discovered alien planet is metal-heavy, like our Mercury, and also close to its sun
The solar system has an assortment of eight different planets orbiting the sun. While each of them is different in their own unique way, they are mostly similar, with one exception. While most of the smaller planets in the solar system are compositionally similar to Earth, bearing a small, solid metal core that makes up […]

NASA says that aliens live on Venus, but they’re only microbes
The cloudy planet dubbed the “Morning Star” and “Evening Star” could be harboring alien life. A NASA-backed international study surmises that there could be simple but sturdy bacteria floating in the uppermost clouds of Venus, reported The Sun. Study author Sanjay Limaye of the University of Wisconsin-Madison says that computer models of Venus suggest it used to be a […]
