Could there be life on the planet Venus?

Scientists say there's phosphine in the planet's atmosphere, which they tell Spectrum News is an exciting find because, on Earth, phosphine is created by some kinds of bacteria. 

"Life as a continuous thing of all the organisms together is extremely tough. Life on Earth has been found in environments that used to be thought, you know, the hot water vents at the bottom of the ocean and strong acids and things like that. And we may be discovering that life may exist in many other environments on other planets that we didn't consider before," said Rochester Museum & Science Center planetarium director Steve Fentress.

There's more work to be done before scientists can make this claim definitively.

So far, they don't believe active volcanoes, lightning strikes or meteor strikes are the cause.
