In 2021, the planet Venus was at the center of extremely controversial discussions about what is hidden, or not, in its atmosphere, and of course, in the end, it was concluded that there is no life there. Well, scientists go further with the announcements and say that the atmosphere that the planet Venus has is too dry to contain any kind of life, and this kind of destroys the hopes of many who thought that the first forms could be hidden there of life discovered in the universe.
The planet Venus had its atmosphere reanalyzed by scientists to recheck its entire composition, and following the calculations made by them, they came to the conclusion that there is too little water there. According to calculations made by scientists, the atmosphere on the planet Venus is mostly composed of sulfuric acid, and extremely little water, so there is no chance that any microorganism can survive there now.
Planet Venus: The Very Important Announcement That Stunned Mankind
The planet Venus could not host any kind of microbe that currently exists on Earth, this being the conclusion of scientists, but it is possible that there are life forms that we do not know about. They could survive in the atmosphere of the planet Venus, but scientists limit themselves to what they currently know on Earth and consider that there is no life in the atmosphere of the planet, at least based on what we know now.
"We found that not only is the effective concentration of water molecules slightly below that required for the most resistant microorganism on Earth, it is more than 100 times too low. It is almost at the end of the scale and at an infinitesimal distance from what life requires to be active. We talked about this a bit last year; we know Venus's atmosphere is extremely dehydrated, but what we don't know is how well mixed it is."
The planet Venus had the phosphine in its atmosphere correlated with that on Earth, which can support life, but things are much different there, so it is impossible for the life forms here to survive there. Scientists believe that they could find life not on the planet Venus, but on Jupiter, various theories have been formulated so far, but nothing has turned into reality, so it remains to be seen to what extent it will be possible to detect life there .
The planet Venus is still targeted by new missions that space agencies are currently developing, NASA wanting to learn more about the closest planet to Earth.
