Three Ways to Track Venusquakes, from Balloons to Satellites



Washington DC (SPX) Nov 28, 2024
Instruments aboard robotic landers have measured seismicity on the Moon and Mars, helping researchers learn about the inner workings of those celestial bodies. But the internal makeup of Venus is still not known, in part because high winds and blistering temperatures make it significantly more difficult to detect quakes on the second planet from the Sun. Three approaches to studying quakes on Venus are currently plausible, write Garcia et al. Ground sensors like those used on the Moon and Mars can ... read more
