Since man first entered space, the search for life in the vast expanses of the solar system, and even beyond it, has become the pinnacle of space exploration and a constant focus of interest for the media.

You can find new biological environments and meet creatures we have not yet known that will ignite the imaginations of science lovers and science fiction lovers together. 

While in recent decades a great deal of effort has been expended in seeking such and such evidence for the possibility of life on the surface of Mars, or of Europe and Enceladus, the frozen moons of the planets Jupiter and Saturn, the planet Noga, which is almost identical in size to all other planets. To be ignored in the race for life. 





This disregard was for a good reason.

The surface temperature of Venus, which is closer to the sun than Earth, is 462 degrees Celsius and its atmosphere is filled with sulfuric oxide.

Out of several dozen probes sent to the planet, only two were able to take photos and send images back to Earth, this is because the planet's toxic atmosphere "eats" metals. 

But it is precisely in this hostile and impossible environment that there are signs that life is indeed succeeding, not on the planet's surface, but in its atmosphere, where there are points where favorable heat conditions prevail for life to develop.

In a study submitted to the prestigious scientific journal Nature, a team of astronomers claims to have been able to detect phosphine, or hydrogen phosphorus, gas in Noga's atmosphere. 





Among researchers, phosphine is considered a gas that is almost directly related to the existence of life and the researchers believe that this is significant evidence for the possible existence of life on the hot planet.

Although phosphine was also found in the atmosphere of the planet Jupiter, it is estimated that it was caused by huge storms that occur in the atmosphere of the huge planet.

The appearance of phosphine in Noga's atmosphere has no plausible scientific explanation other than the existence of life. 

In the scientific community there are those who doubt the possibility that life does exist in such a hostile environment.

The critics claim that no real specimen was collected from Noga's atmosphere but only observations were made from telescopes and that there may be another unknown explanation for the invention of the planet's prospene in the atmosphere.

But the possibility that life, even if macroscopic, exists on the planet closest to Earth, excites the scientific community and ignites the imagination of many scientists.
