ALIEN life could be producing an Earth-like gas on Venus, our closest space neighbour. The scorching "hell planet" would instantly kill a human, with surface temperatures reaching 470C – and pressure ...

Scientists have spotted new details on a distant planet, in a major breakthrough that could transform the search for alien life. The research has allowed scientists to see the atmosphere on a planet ...

Experts from the Moscow State University’s Research Institute of Nuclear Physics said one of their satellites spotted several high-power “light explosions” dozens of kilometres above the Earth’s ...

Water vapor has been detected in the atmosphere of one of the first alien planets ever identified by astronomers. Advances in the technique used to scan the atmosphere of this "hot Jupiter" could help ...

Methane could be the first indication of life beyond Earth, scientists say. New research from UC Santa Cruz suggests that the gas could be a key ‘biosignature’ – an indicator of life on another planet ...

Alien lifeforms 'unlike anything we've ever seen' may be living in the clouds of Venus, a new study has claimed. With an atmosphere thick with carbon dioxide and a surface hot enough to melt lead, it ...

Venus was once thought to be similar in condition to Earth and is a similar size. But over the course of its 4.6 billion year history, greenhouse gasses have taken its toll on the boiling hot planet – ...

Scientists believe they have discovered the strongest signs yet of alien life on a distant ocean-covered planet far beyond our solar system. The possible landmark discovery was made by scientists ...

NASA cannot rule out that 'potential unknown alien technology' is operating in the Earth's atmosphere, a new report has concluded. The study of flying saucers, UFOs and claims alien spaceships are ...

Alien life may one day be found not from radio signals beamed across the cosmos but from an all-too-familiar side-effect of civilisation: pollution. It's the Earth's atmosphere that he's usually ...

Scientists believe they have found the first proof of alien life after harvesting strange particles from the edge of the Earth’s atmosphere. A team from Sheffield University collected organisms from ...
