   • 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.

   To find the answers, NASA's VERITAS mission will study the planet's surface, and its interior with a powerful new generation of scientific tools. It will create incredibly detailed radar maps of Venus' surface, vastly improving on the maps made by NASA’s Magellan mission in the 1990s.

   On Earth, with its spin axis tilted by about 23 degrees, we experience summer when our part of the planet (our hemisphere) receives the Sun’s rays more directly – a result of that tilt. In winter, the tilt means the rays are less direct.

   Aug 23, 2021 · HOST PADI BOYD: Venus is the second planet from the Sun in our solar system. It’s sometimes called Earth’s twin because it’s similar in size and density, but it is currently far too hot on its surface to support life as we know it or liquid water.

   Why is Venus so similar to the Earth?

   • Sue Smrekar: Venus is just an incredibly complicated planet, which has so many similarities to the Earth. You know, one really big and perhaps underappreciated similarity is the age of its surface. If we look at the surface of Mercury or Mars, they’re covered with impact craters. That means those surfaces have been around for billions of years.

   Why is Venus called Earth's twin?

   • It’s sometimes called Earth’s twin because it’s similar in size and density, but it is currently far too hot on its surface to support life as we know it or liquid water. HOST PADI BOYD: In fact, Venus is the hottest planet in our solar system, with a thick, toxic atmosphere.

   Is Venus a life-bearing planet?

   • The present-day surface of volcanic rock is blasted by high temperatures and pressures. Asked if the surface of Venus is likely to be life-bearing today, we can give a quick answer: a hard “no.” Further, Venus may hold lessons about what it takes for life to get its start – on Earth, in our solar system, or across the galaxy.
