What else will 2020 bring?

Well, at least phosphene in the Venus atmosphere.

Nice 3 min Youtube video explaining the finding.

Usually in this field, "hot topic" means research area with zero or near-zero empirical data, ripe for the speculation of a thousand experts, each describing the elephant from their perspective...

The late Dr Carl Sagan lost his Harvard faculty position for suggesting life could be on Venus... From a science paper in 1967!
