'One lifeform's deadly radiation may be another lifeform's lunch,' says David Grinspoon of the South West Research Institute in Colorado.

Venus clouds 'might harbour life'

There could be life on the planet Venus, US scientists have concluded in a report in the journal Astrobiology.
The existence of life on the planet's oven-hot surface is unimaginable.

Rare transit of Venus on June 8. The previous transit of Venus occurred on December 6, 1882 -
