but we wanted to take a different approach based on observations of Venus' current atmospheric chemistry," said Constantinou.

The Tethered Observatory for Balloon-based Imaging and Atmospheric Sampling is an idea awarded a NIAC grant by NASA earlier this year.

Doing the same for Venus, stripping the remaining water from the atmosphere would create a global layer just 1.2 inches (3 centimeters) deep. "Venus has 100,000 times less water than the Earth ...

TOI-270 d, located just 73 light years away, could be key to understanding a new class of planets. A study revealed it may be a giant rocky planet with a thick, hot atmosphere. NASA’s JWST detected ...

On Monday, you covered a train wreck and on Tuesday, Mariner 10’s ultraviolet revelations of a dynamic Venus atmosphere. This was the heyday of Ted Baxter, the booming airhead TV anchor played ...

During that period, the so-called inner planets—Mercury, Venus, Earth, and Mars—all developed the same kind of air, a so-called primary atmosphere. It consisted mostly of hydrogen and helium ...

The DAVINCI+ and VERITAS missions aim to respectively characterize Venus’ atmosphere and map its surface in unprecedented detail. This should provide us information about possible tectonic ...

A new study modeled the chemistry of TOI-270 d, an exoplanet between Earth and Neptune in size, finding evidence that it could be a giant rocky planet shrouded in a thick, hot atmosphere. TOI-270 d is ...
