Venus is a fiery world with sulfuric acid clouds and a toxic atmosphere fueled by a runaway greenhouse effect, but scientists believe that about 800 million years ago, it could have been more like Earth.
Earth is a true gem of our solar system, with a perfect distance from the sun to support life and a temperature to keep liquid water. Our closest rocky neighbor, Venus, is also within the area known as the "Goldilocks Zone," but with temperatures at 900 degrees Fahrenheit, no one or thing is living there now.
Venus has interesting geological features, including volcanoes, craters and mountains. VERITAS will look for the composition of these features and help determine how they formed.
