On Mars or the Moon, researchers use high-resolution optical cameras to spot “skylights,” which are essentially holes in the ground where a cave roof has collapsed. But on Venus, the thick atmosphere ...

Scientists have uncovered evidence of a gigantic empty lava tunnel beneath Venus, revealing a hidden volcanic world on ...

Venus has long been cast as the solar system’s hellscape, a world of crushing pressure and searing heat where spacecraft survive for minutes, not days. Now a new line of research suggests that beneath ...

A massive subsurface structure has been discovered on Venus, according to astronomers relying on radar data analysis.

Volcanic activity is not unique to Earth: traces of volcanic activity, such as lava tubes, have been found on Mars and the moon. Now, the University of Trento has demonstrated the existence of an ...

By Will Dunham WASHINGTON, Feb 9 (Reuters) - A fresh examination of radar data for Venus obtained by NASA's Magellan spacecraft in the 1990s indicates the presence of a large underground cavity ...

Scientists analyzing decades-old NASA's Magellan data have identified only the second reported lava tube on Venus.

Using archival radar data from NASA’s Magellan spacecraft, planetary researchers have identified a vast underground conduit beneath the surface in the Venusian region of Nyx Mons.

A major study by an international team of researchers using data from the NASA/ESA/ASI Cassini spacecraft has revealed a lattice-like structure of crisscrossing reflected waves that flow downstream ...

A G-shaped star pattern becomes visible after dark on February 9, 2026, formed from well-known winter stars observable in the Northern Hemisphere.

A new analysis of data from four instruments aboard NASA’s Cassini spacecraft has demonstrated the crucial role that Saturn’s small icy moon Enceladus plays in circulating energy and momentum around ...
