A 400-year-old painting, discovered buried at the bottom of a closet, has turned out to be worth millions of dollars. The painting, "Apollo and Venus" by Dutch painter Otto van Veen, was found while an employee of an Iowa art gallery was hunting around for something else in a little-used attic two years ago. It took art experts months to restore th...

A Venus-like exoplanet may have atmosphere with oxygen but not life, researchers report, adding that their magma ocean-atmosphere model can help solve the puzzle of how Venus evolved over time.

Venus has an "electric wind" strong enough to remove the components of water from its upper atmosphere, a study said.

By human standards, a descent onto Venus mirrors a fall through different circles of hell. As visitors approach, they would first pass through a thick haze of sulfuric acid. Further below are heavy metal snows that drift over Venusian mountain peaks. Finally, upon touching down, the average surface temperatures -- ranging from 800 to 900 degrees Fa...
