Sep 14, 2020 · Just last month, a team of scientists - some of whom were part of this new discovery - explored and found plausible the possibility of a permanent floating microbe community living in the clouds of Venus, in exactly the temperate zone in which Greaves and her team found phosphine. So the discovery is certainly a tantalising prospect.
Scientists have speculated that if liquid water existed on its surface before the runaway greenhouse effect heated the planet, microbial life may have formed on Venus, but it may no longer exist. [18]
Jul 29, 2024 · However, Greaves warned, even the presence of both phosphine and ammonia wouldn’t be evidence of microbial life on Venus, because there’s so much information missing about the state of...
