   Feb 27, 2023 · It’s like having a mysterious exoplanet next door. We’ve been watching Venus with the naked eye for millennia and with telescopes for centuries. In many ways, it’s still shrouded in mystery.

   Over the next five years the orbiter returned near ­global radar images, gravity data and a topographic map of the second planet from the sun. It was the latest in a long line of Soviet and U.S. missions to our neighboring planet, but when Magellan plunged to Venus’s surface in 1994, nasa ’s support for Venus spacecraft died with it.

   Is Venus the exoplanet next door?

   • “Venus is the exoplanet next door,” says Suzanne Smrekar, a NASA planetary scientist and a principal investigator of the upcoming NASA mission to Venus, VERITAS, which will launch around 2031 to study the planet from surface to core. The similar size and planetary composition of Venus and Earth make them twin planets.

   Is Venus an exoplanet?

   • So even though we’ve sent orbiters—and ill-fated landers —to Venus, our lack of understanding means that, in some ways, it’s more like an exoplanet than another planet in our Solar System. In the last 30 years, scientists have found thousands of exoplanets.

   Can Venus teach us about exoplanets?

   • Every one of them is interesting in its own right, but much of our interest in exoplanets concerns their atmospheres and their potential habitability. This is where Venus and exoplanet science intersect. Learning more about Venus can teach us about exoplanets, and the reverse is also true, according to the authors of a new research article.

   What role does Venus play in our understanding of exoplanets and planetary habitability?

   • The role that Venus can play in our understanding of exoplanets and planetary habitability generally was given particular focus in OWL, such that the planet features in seven strategic research areas in the twelfth, cross-cutting science chapter ‘Exoplanets’.

   Can terrestrial exoplanets inform Venus' evolutionary history?

   • “It may sound preposterous to propose that terrestrial exoplanets, which are far from being explored in-situ, and which present challenges even to detection of their atmospheres, can in any way inform Venus’ evolutionary history,” the authors write.
