In a study published earlier this year in the journal Icarus, Carruba's team analyzed the orbital evolution of the 20 known Venus co-orbital asteroids. Their simulations showed that three of these ...

The three asteroids flying along with Venus measure between 330 and 1,300 feet in diameter, making each one capable of leveling entire cities and setting off massive fires and tsunamis.

Venus currently has at least 20 co-orbital asteroids that have the potential to “approach the Earth,” according to a new study published in the journal Astronomy and Astrophysics.

It is also set to send a craft to Jupiter’s Trojan asteroids to examine the remnants of primordial matter that formed the outer planets, gaining more information about how our solar system was ...

An odd kind of asteroid has been hiding out in our solar system, close to Venus, and it took a new state-of-the-art surveying camera to detect it. The Zwicky Transient Facility, known as ZTF, was ...

The average temperature on Venus is 864 degrees, one day is the equivalent to 117 Earth days, and it has a “crushing carbon dioxide atmosphere 90 times as thick as Earth’s,” NASA says.
