Ringwoodite on Venus - Possibly A Sign of Water and Alien Life Hidden ?

In an article few months ago here we discussed about a very interesting mineral that's pretty much all over the inside of our planet right below the crust known as Ringwoodite. Ringwoodite is a very interesting blue mineral that seems to contain double the amount of water on the surface of the planet. In other words our planet Earth has quite a lot of ringwoodite on the inside at a depth of about 500 to 800 kilometers and this seems to contain quite a lot of water. We've also discovered that this is probably where most of the water on Earth came from not asteroids not comments but the minerals on the inside and we also hypothesized that Mars may have had the same kind of a structure. But as Mars cool down and as basically the temperature inside the planet decreased the water from ringwoodite start escaping and eventually created lots of water on the surface of Mars that eventually escaped due to low gravity and due to the fact that Mars didn't really have that much atmosphere and eventually made this planet a lot drier than it used to be.

But we've never really talked about Venus that much and because we assume that Mars, Earth and Venus were created from relatively similar materials and of course Mercury as well. The assumption goes that Venus also has quite a lot of ringwoodite on the inside and because it actually didn't cool down; but it warmed up unlike Earth another like Mars; it's very likely that the ringwoodite is actually still inside and it's very likely that we have quite a lot of water right here on Venus as well.

In other words, if we could somehow find a way to decrease the temperature of Venus to basically more manageable temperatures from what it is right now and the first things we could do is of course decrease its atmosphere quite dramatically. We could may be find a way to naturally release all of the water inside Venus without really bringing any water from the outside. So, if we can decrease the atmosphere to about 0.7 Atmospheres and also make sure that Venus actually naturally reduces its temperature to kind of be more similar to Earth. We could potentially have it start releasing that ringwoodite water that's stored on the inside and thus create the actual oceans on the surface completely without any asteroids or cometcomets.

Now, this would take quite a lot of time. Actually because this so-called water cycle is very time-consuming. As a matter of fact, it probably takes up 2 billion years on Earth to circulate water from the surface down to upper mantle and then back to the surface. But there is probably a way for us to accelerate and one of those ways is of course to have Venus cool down really quick. Right now, it's actually a little bit chilly here to the point where it's not going to have liquid water. So it's decreased that'll be do a little bit and give it just a little bit of water so that we could have something on the surface here and we can already see a water layer developing right there. So, if we remove the atmosphere we'll see that there is now liquid water on the surface.

All this water came from the inside because as the planet cools down the layer of ringwoodite will actually move closer and closer to the surface and will eventually start coming out and deposit these huge layers of liquid water. Now, all of this is obviously still speculation where we were kind of basing this assumption on what we've seen on Earth so far and what we've actually discovered in the last few years about our own the structure of our planet Earth. But if Venus is structured similarly it definitely has this hidden water on the inside and to release this water we need to cool Venus down.

Now, if this is true Venus actually has a much higher chance of being a habitable planet than Mars does. Obviously, there's a lot of problems to resolve here. But if cooling down Venus is all we need to do; it would be a lot easier for us to basically tell from this planet rather than going to Mars and trying to find a way to not only warm this up. But also to maintain the atmosphere and maintain a liquid water despite the fact that Mars is farther away from the Sun. But also the fact that Mars just doesn't have enough gravity to hold on the stuff.

We've just created three relatively habitable planets simply based on the fact that we were able to release a liquid water stored inside of those planets. Now, Mars may not have anything left. But we definitely know that Earth does and so does probably Venus. Anyway, that's all what I wanted to discuss in this article and hopefully you will know a little bit more about Venus and/or the water that's hiding inside the planet and possibly alien life too. Hopefully, one day we will find a way to actually terraform Venus and possibly we will be able to call it as Earth 2.0.
