When we delve into the geological tapestry of Venus and Earth, it becomes clear that while these two planets share some superficial similarities, their internal structures and surface features reveal a starkly different narrative. The geological differences lay the groundwork for understanding why they cannot be classified as twins, even when they are often lumped […]

Using data from NASA’s Magellan mission, scientists have discovered direct geological evidence of ongoing volcanic activity on the surface of Venus. The study, led by Davide Sulcanese of d’Annunzio University in Pescara, Italy, analyzed lava flows observed in two locations on the planet, revealing that the volcanic activity on Venus could be comparable to that […]
