Scientists have built the most detailed map volcanoes on Venus, which is also the most complete volcano map of all planets in the solar system. The map reveals the locations and sizes of all 85,000 ...

Radar images of the surface of Venus appear to show fresh lava flows, suggesting active volcanoes on the planet. Scientists from Italy's International Research School of Planetary Sciences wrote in an ...

Evidence continues to assemble that Venus is more geologically active than previously thought. Planetary scientists scouring decades-old data from NASA's Magellan spacecraft have found signs of lava ...

Venus is back, baby — and very much alive. Scientists taking a look at old data from NASA’s long retired Magellan spacecraft have spotted the best evidence yet that the planet still stirs with ...

New research led by Universities Space Research Association (USRA) and published today in Science Advances shows that lava flows on Venus may be only a few years old, suggesting that Venus could be ...

ESA’s Venus Express has measured a highly variable quantity of the volcanic gas sulphur dioxide in the atmosphere of Venus. Scientists must now decide whether this is evidence for active volcanoes on ...

In the early 1990s, NASA's Magellan spacecraft captured data from Venus, proving that volcanoes still existed on the planet's surface. Now, a new look at that data says they have spotted at least one ...

Venus is sometimes called Earth’s twin, as it is roughly the same size as Earth, occupies the orbital lane adjacent to ours, and has a problem with greenhouse gases (namely carbon dioxide) in its ...
