NASA Study: Massive Volcanism May Have Altered Ancient Venus’ Climate

(1/1)

Gefn:
Volcanic activity lasting hundreds to thousands of centuries and erupting massive amounts of material may have helped transform Venus from a temperate and wet world to the acidic hothouse it is today, a NASA paper suggests.

The paper also discusses these “large igneous provinces” in Earth’s history which caused several mass extinctions on our own planet millions of years ago.

Kamaji:
Ok, but what slowed its rotation down to the point where its day lasts longer than its year?

GtHawk:
Seeing as this is coming from NASA did they happen to include in their findings how this hurt/helped venusian moslems?
