A diagram illustrating the different climate pathways Venus may have taken. (Constantinou et al., Nat. Astron., 2024) Venus bears many similarities to Earth. It has a similar size, a similar mass and density, and a similar mineral composition. But it's very different in ways that make a huge difference to habitability as we know it.
May 8, 2024 · Earth, Mars and Venus all looked pretty similar when they first formed. Today, Mars is dry, cold, and dusty; Venus has a hot, crushing atmosphere. Why did these sibling planets turn out...
1 day ago · A team of astronomers has found that Venus has never been habitable, despite decades of speculation that our closest planetary neighbour was once much more like Earth than it is today. The researchers, from the University of Cambridge, studied the chemical composition of the Venusian atmosphere and inferred that its interior is too dry today for there ever to have been enough water for oceans ...
