From 2020:
Astronomers may have found a signature of life on Venus
Evidence indicates phosphine, a gas associated with living organisms, is present in the habitable region of Venus’ atmosphere.

K2-18b is 17.6 times the volume of Earth, and is probably tidally locked in its 33-day orbit around a red dwarf star, K2-18, which is the smallest kind of star. Plasma flares and far-UV radiation emitted by the K2-18 star could cause serious effects or loss of the atmosphere for a planet orbiting near the K2-18.
After the publicity and hype has died down, other reasons are likely to be found for the alleged presence of the chemicals on the planet.
I say abort it....per the Left it’s not really life. /sarc
“On Earth, both molecules are only produced by microbial life, typically marine phytoplankton.”
