Interplanetary hoppers: Microbes from Earth may have reached Venus by hitchhiking on asteroids
If Venusian life does exist, it may have originated from Earth: An interplanetary hopper hitched a ride with an asteroid that grazed Earth’s upper atmosphere and landed on Venus. Researchers from Harvard University — astronomy professor Avi Loeb and student Amir Siraj — proposed the idea after a group of scientists recently detected signatures of phosphine. Microorganisms can produce […]

Populating other worlds: Beneficial microbes can be used as primary colonists for alien planets, suggest researchers
The key to successfully terraforming the Red Planet may lie in some terrestrial microbes. According to microbiologist Jose Lopez and his colleagues W. Raquel Peixoto and Alexandre Rosado, microbes from Earth may be able to jumpstart the creation of a habitable environment on Mars, the same way early microbes kickstarted the creation of the Earth’s […]

Astronomers detect signs of life on Venus
An international team of researchers found evidence of a gas on Venus that could indicate the planet may harbor life. The gas in question is phosphine, a colorless chemical compound that smells like garlic or decaying fish. It is commonly produced by microorganisms on Earth in the absence of oxygen or by the breakdown of organic matter. The team […]

‘Oumuamua asteroid may really be alien technology; it accelerates under its own power
In 2017, astronomers discovered a strange object that entered and then left the solar system. They called it ‘Oumuamua, and it is the first-ever interstellar object identified by scientists. The leading theory for what ‘Oumuaua is suggests that it’s a hydrogen comet. But there are key problems to this theory. For one, a hydrogen comet would have fallen […]

Other planets may be home to more diverse life forms than Earth, suggest scientists
The existence of planets orbiting distant stars outside of Earth’s solar system has accelerated the search for life in space. But despite the fact that these planets, called exoplanets, are too far off to explore using current space technologies, scientists think that they might possess a greater potential for life than Earth itself. Stephanie Olson, an astrobiologist […]

Astronomers discover more stars exhibiting unusual light fluctuations
A strange, dimming star may not be alone after a scientist discovered more stars that are possibly displaying unusual light fluctuations. Some of the stars are dimming rapidly while some are dimming at slower rates, which is similar to Boyajian’s star — a star that dips in brightness for days or weeks at a to,e before […]

Cradles of life? New research says oceans on exoplanets may harbor more life than Earth
A study published in the Astrophysical Journal suggests that oceans on exoplanets may be more hospitable than those on Earth. Scientists traditionally detect which exoplanet is potentially habitable by looking for conditions that closely mimic those on Earth. However, exoplanets that greatly vary from the Earth in terms of conditions such as ocean salinity may, in fact, be more primed […]

Study: Heavy rainfall flooded lakes and rivers on ancient Mars
Early Mars had heavy rains that filled and flooded lakes and rivers, suggests a study published in the journal Geology. Researchers from the University of Texas at Austin and the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) said that precipitation levels reached up to 520 feet per rainfall. Water collected in lakes and river valleys that were sometimes […]

Could Venus have harbored life eons ago?
Venus may have once harbored oceans two to three billion years ago, suggests a study presented at the Joint Meeting of the European Planetary Science Congress and the American Astronomical Society’s Division for Planetary Sciences. Researchers from the National Aeronautics and Space Administration’s (NASA) Goddard Institute for Space Studies ran five simulations of the planet’s environment based […]

Dwarf planet Ceres may have saltwater beneath its surface, researchers say
Reservoirs of saltwater may be lurking beneath the surface of Ceres, the dwarf planet closest to Earth, according to recent images taken by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA)’s Dawn spacecraft. Dawn orbited Ceres from 2015 to 2018 until it ran out of fuel. In its final months, it flew about 20 miles above the dwarf […]
