   What does Venus tell us about our planet?

   • Though their approaches vary, the group agrees that Venus could tell us something vitally important about our planet: what happened to the superheated climate of our planetary twin, and what does it mean for life on Earth? Venus isn’t the closest planet to the Sun, but it is the hottest in our solar system.

   Why do scientists study Venus?

   • By studying Venus, scientists learn how Earth-like planets evolve and what conditions exist on Earth-sized exoplanets. Venus also helps scientists model Earth’s climate, and serves as a cautionary tale on how dramatically a planet’s climate can change. Venus' surface Only 4 spacecraft have ever returned images from Venus’ surface.

   Does Venus offer a new way to talk about climate?

   • And unlike climate here on Earth, the same interactions on Venus don't have the kind of emotional drama attached to them. That means that Venus doesn't just offer new information — it also offers a new way of talking about climate, even with those who have taken an ideological stand against findings here on Earth.

   Why is Venus a smear of light?

   • Venus is a cloud-swaddled planet named for a love goddess, and often called Earth’s twin. But pull up a bit closer, and Venus turns hellish. Our nearest planetary neighbor, the second planet from the Sun, has a surface hot enough to melt lead. The atmosphere is so thick that, from the surface, the Sun is just a smear of light.

   Does Venus have a subduction zone?

   • Now superheated by greenhouse gases, Venus’ climate was once more similar to Earth’s, with a shallow ocean’s worth of water. It may even have subduction zones like Earth, areas where the planet’s crust sinks back into rock closer to the core of the planet. “Venus is like the control case for Earth,” said Smrekar.

   Why does Venus have no plate tectonics?

   • On Earth, plate tectonics is a process in which sections of the planet’s outer crust glide over the mantle — the rocky inner layer above the core — allowing heat to escape through volcanism. Since we think Venus’s interior is similar to Earth's, the lack of plate tectonics means that volcanoes on Venus must work differently than on Earth.

    Why We Study Venus. Venus is the hottest planet in the Solar System, even though Mercury is twice as close to the Sun and receives four times more solar energy. The reason? Venus’ thick, carbon dioxide atmosphere causes a runaway greenhouse effect.
