[ Release Notes ]
Millions of years ago, Venus and Earth cut similar figures. Roughly
the same size and about the same distance from the sun, their
respective evolutions could have followed similar paths. But today,
Venus is a seething vision of Hell, its battery-acid atmosphere and
incessant, hurricane-force winds masking a blistering volcanic
surface. Some scientists wonder if it is a harbinger of whats in
store for Earth. Thanks to the European Space Agency, Venus Express
the most sophisticated satellite ever to visit the planet is
orbiting Earths estranged twin, gathering the data we need to figure
out why Venus went bad. Could our home planet be hurtling towards a
similar fate? And could the hostile Venusian environment, now
seemingly devoid of biologys most fundamental ingredient water yet
harbour life?
