April 17: Atmosphere of Venus
Venus is often referred to as Earth’s twin planet, but it might be a bit more like our evil twin. Join us to explore Venus’s scorching temperature, crushing pressures, and runaway greenhouse effect that have transformed it into one of the most hostile worlds in our solar system. We will uncover what Venus’s atmosphere reveals about Earth’s past, and its possible future.
Space is infinite, but planetarium seats are not—reserve spots while they last: https://tickets.sbnature.org/events/01951a87-41ed-3825-6239-932137acb149
