Study Finds Photosynthesis in Venus’ Clouds Could Support Life

New data analysis has found that the sunlight filtering through Venus’ clouds could support Earth-like photosynthesis in the cloud layers and that chemical conditions are potentially amenable to the growth of microorganisms.  Biochemistry Professor Rakesh Mogul is the lead author of the study, Potential for Phototrophy in Venus’ Clouds, published online this weekin the journal … Continue reading Study Finds Photosynthesis in Venus’ Clouds Could Support Life
