Venus

What's the weather like at night on Venus? Scientists are finally finding out.

A mysterious whiff of an unstable chemical in the skies of Venus may not be a sign of life but the result of explosive volcanic eruptions, a new study finds.

Venus may still be geologically active today, which could mean that Earth's planetary sibling is a good place for scientists to learn about early Earth and faraway worlds.

Venus scientists have long complained that their target wasn't getting its due in robotic investigators. Now, a third new mission to Earth's mysterious twin has been announced in just over a week.

We may be witnessing the start of a bona fide Venus exploration campaign.

NASA will send two new missions to Venus to learn more about how the planet's hellish atmosphere turned so hostile over its history.

You might have been wondering where the most brilliant of all the planets has been in recent months.

Astronomers have long struggled to pin down how long a day lasts on Venus, but new research suggests the difficulty stems not from flawed measurements but from real variations in the planet's spin.

Earth is the only planet we know contains life. Is our planet special?

India plans to launch a new orbiter to Venus a year later than planned in 2024, according to media reports, although the country's space agency hasn't published an update to its website yet.
