The 85,000 volcanoes mapped thus far might be the result ... for understanding how the planet remains geologically active despite its harsh surface conditions. Future missions to Venus might provide ...

Active volcano spotted on Venus. The planet's not dead yet. Similar convection processes are now believed to be present on Venus, but instead occurring in the planet's thin outer crust, closer to the ...

Venus may be far more geologically alive than anyone expected. New research suggests its outer crust could be churning with ...

Future missions to Venus could also supply additional data on the density and temperature of the planet's crust, which could ...

Venus—a hot planet pocked with tens of thousands of volcanoes—may be even more geologically active near its surface than previously thought. New calculations by researchers at Washington ...

Some scientists, however, have suggested that current volcanic activity on Mars and Venus may not be so far-fetched after all, with new evidence emerging from recent studies. What Gave Earth Its ...

Convection processes beneath Venus' scorched surface may help explain the planet's many volcanoes, a new study reports. Venus, the hottest planet in the solar system, is estimated to have 85,000 ...
