New Study Shows Venus is Geologically Active

New Study Shows Venus is Geologically Active

Scientists have found evidence that Venus is still geologically active.

They analyzed ring-shaped structures called coronae, which are formed when hot material rises from the planet's interior.

The research suggests that the crust of Venus is being shaped by internal heat, similar to Earth.

Future missions like VERITAS, DAVINCI, and EnVision will help provide further data to confirm and expand on these findings.

These missions could also offer insights into Earth's past.

The findings were published in the journal Science Advances.
