Will the presence of glycine in Venus be confirmed by the end of 2020?
Market Rules
After the announcement of the probable presence of phosphine in the atmosphere of Venus, researchers in the physics department of Midnapore College (India) claimed to have also detected the presence of the amino acid glycine - a component of proteins in living things on Earth - in Venus. It is important to note that the presence of the amino acid does not necessarily imply the existence of life on the planet, but, if confirmed, this discovery could provide at the very least a lot of relevant information about the birth of life on Earth itself.
The article announcing the discovery is still awaiting peer review, before it is accepted and published in a scientific journal.
If the presence of glycine in Venus is confirmed through the publication of a peer-reviewed article by December 31, 2020, this market will be resolved as "yes".
