The dream of living on another planet has intrigued scientists, engineers, and explorers for a long time. Now, the dream is ...
Venus has always been a mysterious planet, largely due to its extreme conditions. It’s a world where temperatures are high enough to melt lead, and its thick, toxic clouds have long been thought to be ...
Reanalysis of NASA's Pioneer Venus mission data reveals that Earth's twin contains 62% water in hydrated compounds.
The air on Venus is about 96.5% carbon dioxide, a potent greenhouse gas. All that CO2 leads to a runaway greenhouse effect ...
The first things they noticed were massive spikes in water at 185𝇈C and 414𝇈C, which were indicative of hydrates such as ...
Despite the hopes of both astronomers and sci-fi fans alike, Venus may never have been habitable to life. This is the conclusion of a new study out of the University of Cambridge, which has been ...
Recent observations of phosphine and ammonia in Venus’s upper atmosphere have reignited debate over whether microbial life could exist in its acidic cloud layers.
The James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) has discovered phosphine in the atmosphere of a brown dwarf — the same chemical that ...
The study of Venus’ atmosphere and climate encompasses a broad spectrum of research, from the detection of trace chemical species and the characterisation of cloud dynamics to investigations of the ...
Planet Venus is one of the most fascinating places in the solar system, and the one most easily recognizable in the night sky. The true twin of planet Earth (no, it's not Mars), Venus has more things ...
A gas on Earth has also been detected in the atmosphere of Venus.While it may not signify the presence of life, the "entirely surprising" discovery of phosphine could hint at unknown processes ...
