Nasa has announced that it is sending two new missions to Venus to examine the planet's atmosphere and geological features.

 

The first instance is called Davinci+ (Deep Atmosphere Venus Investigation of Noble gases, Chemistry, and Imaging) mission will measure the planet's atmosphere to gain insight into how it formed and evolved. It will also aim to determine whether Venus ever had an ocean.

 NASA has termed the second mission, Veritas (Venus Emissivity, Radio Science, InSAR, , Topography, and Spectroscopy), will map the planet's surface to understand its geological history and investigate how it developed so differently than Earth.

 

Paul Rincon, Science Editor, BBC News website says” It may have harboured oceans for a billion years of its history, and there is even a region of the planet's thick atmosphere where microbial life could survive, floating among the clouds.” .

 So, the question seems to be  When did Venus grow to its present status, so different from Earth^?

 Dropping the millions of years might do the trick. Maybe Venus looked like it does today when God created it, ^.
