Ok...
There's a recent scientific paper out on the phosphene gas on the planet Venus that states that the only source of the gas is from some kind of microbial life form.
(Bacteria)

And...
I'm wondering if finding out is such a good idea.
Venus isn't like earth except in size.
The pressure of the atmosphere there is at least 50 times that of earth's atmosphere.
Then there's the heavy clouds of sulfuric acid and the lakes, rivers, and streams of liquid lead, tin, and etc that make up the surface from the ambient temperature.
I'm not sure that any probes we send will survive...
And if we did get "lucky" and find bacteria should we bring it back to the Earth?
What if China's Wuhan laboratory got a sample of the bacteria?
