Possible Signs of Alien Life Discovered On Venus: Latest Update

Possible Signs of Alien, scientists have spotted phosphine, a rare and toxic gas, in the atmosphere of our neighbouring planet Venus, suggesting that it may be home to alien life. Russia‘s government space agency has claimed it as a Russian planet.

Phosphine is made up of 1 phosphorous molecule with 3 hydrogen molecules,” It is much less stable than water it would not stand a chance in the very acid atmosphere of Venus unless it was being frequently replenished.

Venus is Earth’s nearest planetary neighbour. Similar structure but slightly smaller than Earth, Venus is the second planet from the sun. Earth is the third. Venus is wrapped in a thick, toxic atmosphere that traps in heat. Surface temperatures reach a scorching 880 degrees Fahrenheit, hot enough to melt lead.

Dmitry Rogozin, head of the Roscosmos (Russian Space Corporation) revealed that Russia has plans to send its own mission to Venus.

An already proposed joint venture with the United States called ‘Venera-D‘, the Russian state news agency TASS reported.

“We think that Venus is a Russian planet, so we shouldn’t lag behind. Projects for Venus missions are included in the united government programme of Russia’s space exploration for 2021 to 2030,” he said.

An official of Roscosmos added, “The USSR was the only country to conduct regular explorations of Venus using on-planet stations. The first ever soft landing on another planet’s surface in the Solar system was performed in 1970 by the Venera-7 descent module. Several orbital missions and landings provided detailed data on the Venerian climate, soil and atmosphere composition. The Soviet Venera-13 spacecraft still holds the record as the longest active spacecraft on Venus remaining operational for 127 minutes.”

Executive Director of Roscosmos (Science and Advanced Programme) Alexander Bloshenko stated: “Discovering chemical substances as possible chemical markers of life existence in Venus’s atmosphere via remote astronomical observations cannot be considered objective evidence of life existence on the planet.”

“Credible scientific data on that matter can be obtained only via contact explorations of the planet’s surface and atmosphere,” Alexander Bloshenko added.
