PLANT LIFE DISCOVERED BEYOND EARTH
By Leonard Estrada
Astronauts recently discovered a type of plant growing on the planet Venus. The strangely colored plant was
brought back to Earth on Atlantis III, when it returned home from its month long mission last Friday.
The huge plant resembles a Sago palm; it is hunter green in hue with deep shades of purple and yellow running
down the center of each leaf. When broken, the leaves emit a sweet, viscous liquid that smells very much like
coconut milk. Scientists are using great caution during the plant’s examination process. Protective suits, gloves,
and goggles must be worn at all times. It is believed that the plant’s juice can cause hallucinations if it is
ingested or absorbed through the skin. Only scientists with Level 5 security clearance are permitted to view the
plant. It is being housed at an undisclosed military facility until further tests can be completed.
