How can scientists study the meteorology of Venus from Earth since there are currently no missions to Venus? This is what a ...

Japan’s Himawari weather satellites, designed to watch Earth, have quietly delivered a decade of infrared snapshots of Venus. By stitching 437 images together, scientists tracked daily thermal tides ...

Scientists discovered unexpected images of Venus in the background of Earth's weather satellite photos, enabling them to ...

The Venus atmosphere is full of substances that easily evaporate, called volatiles. These include noble gases and compounds including nitrogen, hydrogen, carbon, and sulfur.

Venus's atmosphere is comprised of 96.5 percent carbon dioxide and 3.5 percent nitrogen, along with trace amounts of other gases like oxygen and sulfur dioxide.

The planet Venus is like Earth’s worst twin – roughly the same size but with a thick layer of acid clouds over a crushing, hellish atmosphere. Its clouds in particular have been a source of interest, ...

Researchers’ detection of two gases, phosphine and ammonia, in the clouds of Venus raises speculation about possible life forms in the planet’s atmosphere.

The planet Venus is often referred to as "Earth's twin" since both planetary bodies are approximately the same size and mass. But unlike Earth, which is teeming with all forms of life both large ...

However, an unexpected discovery may change this current view of Venus forever. In Venus’ atmosphere, scientists have observed a spike in the level of deuterium relative to hydrogen.

The researchers calculated that the only way to explain Venus' dry state was if the planet hosted larger than expected volumes of HCO+ in its atmosphere. AP The reason Venus is so dry has been ...

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 so different?

Scientists have spotted two gases in Venus's atmosphere that may be the fingerprints of life on our hostile neighbor. Phosphine gas and ammonia gas have been detected in the planet's thick, hot ...
