Is There Life on Venus?Last week a team from MIT and Cardiff University announced the detection of Phosphine in the atmosphere at Venus our nearest neighbor. Phosphine (PH3) gas in Venus’s atmosphere should be in oxidized forms. Dr. Janusz Petkowski from the MIT team lead by Sara Seager, joins John Michael Godier on Event Horizon to discuss this finding in detail.
