First Habitable Planet In The Solar System?


After decades of research, including multiple landers and
orbiters, science can definitively say: Venus sucks. Seriously,
that place is the worst, with its boiling temperature, intense
pressure, sulfuric acid rain, and more. 


 


But was it always this bad? According to new research from NASA
and various universities in Sweden and the US, Venus might have
actually been the first habitable world in the Solar System. And
it might have maintained a reasonable climate for billions of
years, finally rolling over into a runaway greenhouse effect just
a few hundred million years ago.
