Ozone Layer Discovered in Venus´ Atmosphere

A European Space Agency Venus Express spacecraft has discovered an ozone layer in the atmosphere of planet Venus.

Astronomers believe this finding could be helpful to find out about life on other planets. Apart from the Earth and Venus, scientists have also detected an ozone layer on Mars.

"It is yet more evidence of the fundamental similarity between the rocky planets, and shows the importance of studying Venus to understand them all," ESA Project Scientist Hakan Svedhem said about the discovery.
