So I think there might be ayylmaos on Venus. Not the intelligent kind, just simple life, but life nontheless. And several scientists agree, too. There's actually some fairly decent photographic evidence of this kind of thing now. This isn't new data though, but rather a review of old data. Reviewing old data can lead to surprising new finds though, for instance a review of the old Voyager 2 data revealed 2 undiscovered moons around Uranus

Anyways though, back on track. Most people don't realize this, but the soviets actually beat us in the space race when it came to interplanetary stuff. The Soviets were the first to succesfully land something on another planet. And it was Venus too, not Mars, humans landed stuff on Venus before Mars.
They did this through the Venera program, which was a series of probes that touched down on the surface and provided amazing pictures of this hellish world
These two photos were taken by Venera 13. Venus is truly a hell though, with surface temperatures at 500 degrees celsius and 90 times normal atmospheric pressure on Earth. No probe ever sent to its surface has ever lasted more than a couple hours, with the longest lived probe lasting a grand total of 2 hours 7 minutes before failing. Seems like an unlikely place to harbor life, but considering that we only know for sure of life on one planet, we can't say for sure what life can and can't evolve in. And live on Earth has proven to be extremely adaptable to harsh conditions as well. Anyways, a closer look at some of the Venera photos reveals some interesting anomalies. I'm going to quote from Leonid Ksanfomaliti, a very well respected scientist and one of the team members on the Venera project
The most interesting thing of all though is a "scorpion". The landers kicked up quite a bit of dust when they landed, and you can see in one series of photographs, something crawling out of the dirt trying to uncover itself
Let's have a closer look at this object, shall we?
So, what do you guys think? Are there ayylmaos on Venus? Not a whole lot is known about Venus, it hasnt been explored nearly as much as Mars, partially because Mars showed more promise of life to us, but also because you can actually have a multi-year mission on its surface. No probe landed on Venus has ever lasted more than a couple hours. And orbiters don't help see what's on the surface either, considering Venus' atmosphere is opaque and choked with cloud.
On a side note, here's a pretty cool video about Venera 9, the first ever manmade object to succesfully land on another planet

In the image, obtained in the period of 0–13 min after landing, one can see that a vertically elongated black object of unknown origin, ‘a black rag’, measuring about 60 mm in height, emerged, wrapping along its full height the measuring cone (for soil mechanical properties measurements). On the two subsequent images taken in 27 and 36 min respectively, the object disappeared without a trace.

The figure shows a sequence of images of ‘disk’ (arrow a) and its surroundings. In the first two frames of the figure, the shape of ‘disk’ and ‘broom’ almost do not change. At the 72 minute at the bottom of the disk a short arc appeared. In frame (86 min) the arc lengthened by several times, and the ‘disk’ was divided into fragments. In the next frame (93 min), instead of the ‘disk’ the symmetrical bright object appeared of about the same size and of a regular shape (b). It is formed by numerous angular folds, such as chevrons
The most interesting thing of all though is a "scorpion". The landers kicked up quite a bit of dust when they landed, and you can see in one series of photographs, something crawling out of the dirt trying to uncover itself

On the first image (7 min), on the ejected soil is a shallow oblong groove visible, with its length about 100 mm. In the second image (20 min) sides of the grooves are raised, and the length increased to about 150 mm. The orientation of the grooves is the same as that of the ‘scorpion’. In the picture of the 59th min a part of the regular structure of the ‘scorpion’ appeared,” the author describes in detail.
On the 93rd minute, the ‘scorpion’, apparently, recovered completely from the soil that filled it, that was consisting a layer probably not exceeding a 1–2 cm. Thus, the rescue operation of the object took about 1.5 hr. One can assume that this indicates its limited physical abilities. On the 119th min it was no longer visible.
Analysis of the available technical documentation also showed that all the external operations (e.g. throwing away of the lids, drilling of the ground) had been completed for a minimum period of time, not exceeding 30 minutes, and that nothing else had separated from the lander. The assumption of a separated part contradicts also the fact that in the subsequent images the object ‘scorpion’ is missing.
