Phosphine found in the atmosphere. So far, science is aware that only biological activity produces this chemical.
What is sweet: This information isn't supposed to be released to the public until tomorrow. From TOS:

Nice to see a scoop.

Biological activity?
But, but, our smart scientists keep telling us it's too hot for life on Venus.
Maybe they never took into account that maybe all life doesn't have to be like us humans?
Or,
Maybe it's just another lie they have been telling us all along.
Well, @"Mystic Wanderer" , you know what they say -- some like it hot.

I'm hoping they find some kind of biological fire imps that dance in the flames and screech like banshees!

I may well be wrong about that, but it will be interesting to see what comes of this.

Venus is so hot that it melts lead. We couldn't even send rovers there as if they'd make it to the surface, they'd be toast within a couple hours.
But some microscopic dudes are living here on Earth, in deep sea Volcano zones where nothing survives so...

Now, I'm curious about that scoop...
Amazing they got back any surface images of Venus. Looks bleak.
