New research suggests that Venus, Earth's twin gone bad, may have started off with tectonic plate activity, like Earth. This will help us understand the evolution of Earth-like planets and why they become hothouses like Venus. Our other planetary next-door neighbor, Mars, may have a deep molten magma ocean, revealed thanks to a fortuitous meteoroid impact on the planet whose shaking was recorded by Mars Insight. Join us for these insights, space news, and more.
