"Was Venus the First Habitable World of our Solar System?"
Quote
Very interesting, if there is/was life where is it now, did it come here? Did it all die or go underground or onto ships? 8)
Key Points:
• Venus may have had a climate with liquid water on its surface for approximately 2 billion
years.
• The rotation rate and topography of Venus play crucial roles in its atmospheric dynamics.
• Venus's climatic history has important implications for exoplanetary studies of the
habitable zone.

QuoteAt its current rotation period of 243 days, Venus's climate could
have remained habitable until at least 715 million years ago if it hosted a shallow primordial
ocean. These results demonstrate the vital role that rotation and topography play in
understanding the climatic history of exoplanetary Venus-like worlds being discovered in the
present epoch.
