8 Discoveries That Suggests Life Once Existed on Venus
In the early nineteen nineties, NASA's Magellan spacecraft began transmitting radar images of Venus back to Earth, and scientists noticed something deeply unsettling. The surface of the planet looked young. Not young in the way a freshly formed world looks young, still cooling and churning, but young in a stranger, more troubling sense. Where Earth's surface carries geological scars stretching back more than four billion years, Venus appeared to have been wiped almost entirely clean. The evidence pointed toward a catastrophic planetary resurfacing, an event so total that it had effectively erased whatever came before it.

We're looking for exolife based on a sample size of exactly 1 - us.
Which is problematic at it's core.
And we've been there as a species and haven't learned our lesson yet. How so? The white man wrote off every other race - the Asian, African, Aboriginal Australian, Native American & New Zealand Maori - as being uneducated savages when they encountered them. Decided he was closest to perfection & god. And set out to eliminate both the people AND their cultures in favour of his. The death toll in the Americas and Australia sits in the low 90th percentile, with those deaths being due to a combination of direct violence and disease to which the Indigenous inhabitants had no immunity. And IN SOME CASES - THOSE DISEASES WERE DELIBERATELY SPREAD TO THOSE INDIGENOUS INHABITANTS.
The white man still isn't ready to deal with what could be out there because he still can't deal with someone that looks like him (apart from skin colour) who eats, drinks and sleeps like he does who may live very differently. They may love someone of the same sex OR more than 1 person. They may have a different gender profile. They may have different abilities or thought processes. They may follow a different religion. NONE of that is a reason to make him LESS THAN YOU. He has the SAME rights & freedoms YOU DO.
