Medicine & TechnologyEarth is not the only planet with impressive geological features in the Solar System. Here are five notable geological structures that can be seen on other planets.
Solar Orbiter successfully completed its second Venus flyby 33 hours before BepiColombo's flyby. The spacecraft is 5,000 miles from Venus and will now head to its main mission, the Sun.
All eyes set on Venus as two flybys by Solar Orbiter and BeopiColombo are set to happen this week as a bonus before the two probes reach their main missions in the Solar System.
Life on Venus might not be real according to a new study that explores the origin of the phosphine found in the Venusian atmosphere. They think the strange chemical might be a product of volcanism on the planet.
Both Jupiter and Mars are bright planets, but neither of them could compare to the brightness of Venus. It is easily visible from the Earth and at times shines even brighter than usual. So, how did this neighboring world become so bright?
From July 11 to 14, the young Moon will guide stargazers to a celestial treat when Mars and Venus come close together during the planetary conjunction when celestial bodies align.
New research suggests that Venus' crust is broken into large dark reddish-purple blocks that are moveable like how sea ice behaves. Researchers think the activity in the planet's mantle could be the cause.
Easily visible with the naked eye and observable only from earth, a conjunction occurs when two planets appear to have come close even though they remain far away from one another.
This month, NASA is back with its top skywatching tips, offering up two thrilling treats to look out for. The tips comprise how to best watch Venus and the Milky Way.
It is too dry and too acidic for microbial life to exist above the surface of Venus. But Jupiter has the right temperature and water activity to support life.
Scientists have recently detected an earthquake through the use of instruments they put inside a flying balloon above California, the same mechanism that could soon detect "venusquakes."
NASA and ESA have recently announced 3 missions to Venus that excite scientists with possibilities of understanding more about the planet, the evolution of the solar system, and the history of Earth.
