   Dec 11, 2019 · 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.

   • Did Venus ever host life? Big questions are often asked when thinking about other planets: Is there life? WAS there ever life? If so, what sort of life?
   • How did Venus and Earth come to be so different? Venus and Earth are similar in size and density, so hypothetically, these planets could be very similar.
   • How did Venus form? Even this seemingly basic question about the origin of Venus is still a mystery. “It’s amazing to me that we don’t know whether Venus formed from the same early solar system materials as did Earth and Mars,” says Getty.
   • What is the atmospheric composition at Venus? The atmospheric composition of Venus is an important piece of the context we are seeking as we aim to better evaluate Venus’ potential habitability over time.

   May 13, 2019 · How Venus and Mars can teach us about Earth. One has a thick poisonous atmosphere, one has hardly any atmosphere at all, and one is just right for life to flourish – but it wasn’t always that way. The atmospheres of our two neighbours Venus and Mars can teach us a lot about the past and future scenarios for our own planet. Rewind 4.6 ...

   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.

   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.

   Is Venus a mystery?

   • That was NASA’s most recent mission to Earth’s sister planet, and while we have gained significant knowledge of Venus since then, there are still numerous mysteries about the planet that remain unsolved. NASA’s DAVINCI (Deep Atmosphere Venus Investigation of Noble gases, Chemistry, and Imaging) mission hopes to change that.

   Could Earth have been more like Venus?

   • Without the planetary recycling and regulation between the mantle, oceans and atmosphere, Earth may have ended up more like Venus. Extreme greenhouse effect Venus is sometimes referred to as Earth’s evil twin on account of it being almost the same size but plagued with a thick noxious atmosphere and a sweltering 470ºC surface.

   How hot is Venus compared to Earth?

   • And yet, they are strikingly different. Air pressure at the surface of Venus is 90 times that of Earth, Venus rotates on its axis backwards compared to the other planets in the solar system, and the surface of Venus is over 900 degrees Fahrenheit (over 482 Celsius), making it the hottest planet in our solar system – hot enough to melt lead.
