Some of the building blocks of life are surprisingly stable in Venus-like conditions, according to a new lab experiment.

The scientists, in a new experiment, have found that if the living organisms are hosted by Venus in its toxic clouds, they won't be deprived of amino acids, which is an important building blocks of life. Venus, which is a "twin planet" of Earth, has a high temperature which goes beyond hundreds of degrees and is covered by clouds of corrosive sulfuric acid. This acid is a colourless, carcinogenic liquid which erodes the teeth, irritates our eyes, throats and nose and dissolves me...
