NASA announced two new missions to Venus
Other planets have become something of an afterthought. When was the last time you caught yourself thinking about Neptune? Pluto had the worst fate of all and in 2006 was downgraded to dwarf planet. But NASA on Wednesday announced its intention to bring more attention to Venus, the second planet from the sun. The planet--which is one of the brightest objects in the night sky-- is considered an "inferno-like world" but may have been "the first habitable world in the solar system, complete with an ocean and Earth-like climate." NASA said in a statement that the two missions to the planet will be part of its Discovery Program and will award about $500 million per mission for development. The voyages are expected to take place at the end of the decade.
