A gas that's found in human farts has been detected on planet venus, suggesting evidence of life.
Yesterday an international team announced they had found Phosphine gas in the planet's atmosphere.
On Earth we only know that to be made by bacteria in low-oxygen environments, or artificially.
The discovery has been described as 'significant'.
