It's not possible for life to exist in the clouds of Venus. It's simply too dry, says an international research team led from Queen's University Belfast, UK. Hopes had been raised last year that ...

The stationary gravity wave, as its called, hovers above the surface in the shape of a flattened "V", rippling through the sulfuric acid clouds of Venus that blow by at a chaotic and constant 220 mph.

An international team of astronomers including UK scientists from Manchester and Cardiff, today announced the discovery of a rare molecule – phosphine – in the clouds of Venus. On Earth, this gas is ...

A study published on Monday in the journal Nature Astronomy found that Venus' clouds contained traces of phosphine: an extremely flammable, poisonous, and corrosive gas also found on Earth.

The surface of Venus is comparable to the bottom of Earth’s oceans with one major difference: Venus has the hottest planetary surface in the solar system. National Corporate funding for NOVA is ...
