This is Vladimir Herzog, a Jewish immigrant to Brazil who fled anti-Semitism in Croatia during WW2 & became a prominent journalist. 45 years ago today, he was murdered by the US/UK-supported military regime, which then released a fabricated photo to claim he committed suicide.

So, do the clouds of Venus harbour life?

The paper released today reports the discovery of Phosphine at Venus. Phosphine can be produced *by life* as on Earth or *without life* as in the atmospheres of Jupiter and Saturn (found in 1970s). 1/7

Signs of life on Venus: Scientists say they have detected in the harshly acidic clouds of Venus a gas called phosphine that indicates microbes may inhabit Earth’s inhospitable neighbor, a tantalizing sign of potential life beyond our blue planet https://reut.rs/2GRgDgm

A espetacular descoberta de fosfina na atmosfera de Vênus, e a possível associação com vida nesse planeta, tem uma contribuição importantíssima de mulheres astrônomas: foi liderada por Jane Greaves (Cardiff; esquerda) e com participação da Profa. Sara Seager (MIT; direita).
