Scientists analyzing NASA’s Magellan radar data have confirmed the first known subsurface lava tube on Venus, hidden beneath the planet’s thick clouds. Located near Nyx Mons, this vast volcanic tunnel may stretch for tens of kilometers, revealing how Venus’s extreme conditions shape its geology.
The discovery strengthens theories about Venusian volcanism and sets the stage for future missions like Envision and Veritas to explore the planet’s concealed interior.
