Venus, our planetary neighbor, displays strange geological formations on its surface in the shape of coronae that have ...

A new analysis of Venus’ surface shows evidence of tectonic motion in the form of crustal blocks that have jostled against each other like broken chunks of pack ice. The movement of these blocks could ...

The northern hemisphere of Venus, as captured in radar data from NASA’s Magellan spacecraft. Some of the circular features seen in this image are coronae, mysterious formations that recent studies ...

The geology of Venus presents a complex interplay between extensive volcanic activity, mantle dynamics and tectonic deformation. Recent studies have revealed that, in the absence of Earth‐like plate ...

What can 30-year-old data teach scientists about Venus’ geological activity? This is what a recent study published in Science Advances hopes to address as an international team of researchers ...

Venus has long been called a dry, hellish planet veiled in clouds of liquid acid. But new study of old spacecraft data tells ...

Out of 75 coronae examined, 52 showed signs of these underground forces still at work, hinting that tectonic activity may be more widespread on Venus than previously thought. A new study reveals ...
