Signs of two gases in clouds of Venus could indicate life, scientists say

We had a false alarm about Venusian phosphine (as the article mentions) a few years back. It would be very exciting to get these tentative detections confirmed.<p>There is a lot of microbial life on Earth living in clouds, almost all of it uncharacterized. Microbes have been found living high up into the stratosphere. At the very least, a search for life in the clouds of Venus would prompt us to learn more about this fascinating ecosystem here at home.<p>Review article on terrestrial life in the stratosphere for those interested: <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.mdpi.com&#x2F;1467-3045&#x2F;38&#x2F;1&#x2F;8" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.mdpi.com&#x2F;1467-3045&#x2F;38&#x2F;1&#x2F;8</a>

Makes me think the Soviets may have been correct in their obsession over Venus, if only by sheer luck.

I think it is this paper? For the phosphine detections.<p><a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;arxiv.org&#x2F;abs&#x2F;2301.05160" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;arxiv.org&#x2F;abs&#x2F;2301.05160</a> (<i>&quot;Venus, Phosphine and the Possibility of Life&quot;</i>)

Hopefully the Rocket Lab mission can confirm this: <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;en.m.wikipedia.org&#x2F;wiki&#x2F;Venus_Life_Finder" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;en.m.wikipedia.org&#x2F;wiki&#x2F;Venus_Life_Finder</a>

This seems really optimistic.

For sci-fi fans, Stephen Baxter wrote a very cool short story about possible Venetian life. It&#x27;s part of this collection, and I don&#x27;t particularly want to spoil anything about it: <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;isfdb.org&#x2F;cgi-bin&#x2F;pl.cgi?332397" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;isfdb.org&#x2F;cgi-bin&#x2F;pl.cgi?332397</a>

Hasn&#x27;t phosphine been ruled out as sulphur dioxide? (Very similar peak in spectrum)

Here’s an annoying question: how would one play the discovery of Venusian life into personal gain? I’m thinking “startup&#x2F;invest in space” as a starting point, but surely there’s a more fun&#x2F;rediculous way.<p>Let’s assume that these signals are indeed based in life, and that that life is mostly boring to laymen — some type of bacteria or lava tube denizen with minimal complexity, say
