There is hydrogen on Venus, in the form of H2SO4.

I'm not an expert in chemistry. Is there a way to degrade sulfuric acid down to water and sulfur trioxide?

I'm thinking hypothetical life on Venus utilizes sulfur in similar ways Earthkins use oxygen. They breath vaporized elemental sulfur, exhale carbon disulfide, and drink, and bathe in, hydrogen sulfide liquefied under tremendous pressure.

The whole planet just stinks.

In short

That isn't published research.

That is complete conjecture, which acknowledges the shortcomings before completely ignoring them.


Oh, and a couple of wiki articles.


The fact is, moving enough hydrogen from Jupiter to Venus to change the composition of the atmosphere by even 1% would require 7.5 million times more than the total global annual transport capacity.


And we aren't talking hundreds of thousands 18 wheelers.

We are talking interplanetary vessels


Short of some endevdeaor due to earth becoming inhabitable, dat sheet ain't happenin'

And how do we know this planet isn't being occupied right now with beings like us or any kind of wildlife?

Wouldn't it be a bitch if it turns out God is real and when we find other Earth like planets, all we discover is a bunch of other Human societies that look like slight variations from our own? To include even having some of the same Historical figures albeit slightly altered.

Where it turns out that all God's been doing is creating tons of Human societies and tweaking them all just to see how shite turns out!

There may be some kind of massive war popping off right now or there could be incredible peace time.

They could be living the ultimate anarcho-capitalist society with no state or they could actually be having a massive and bloated governmental bureaucracy that actually works and everybody actually gets along like its Star Trek where there is no money and no religion.

Or someone could be building an Ark.
