The news a few weeks ago of the discovery of phosphine was met with a lot of excitement - could it be microbes that are making this phosphine or some unknown chemistry? My subscribers had a lot of questions in my video comments so I called up a few astrobiologist friends to ask the experts.

👩🏽‍💻 I'm Dr Becky Smethurst, an astrophysicist at the University of Oxford. I love making videos about science with an unnatural level of enthusiasm. I like to focus on how we know things, not just what we know. And especially, the things we still don't know. If you've ever wondered about something in space and couldn't find an answer online - you can ask me! My day job is to do research into how supermassive black holes can affect the galaxies that they live in. In particular, I look at whether the energy output from the disk of material orbiting around a growing supermassive black hole can stop a galaxy from forming stars.
