Yet with nearly two decades since the last U.S. mission there, our sister planet has received little attention in recent years. Return to Venus provides a look back at the history of Venus exploration, how human perceptions of the planet have changed through time, and inspires us think about what secrets we have yet to reveal from our inhospitable and enigmatic neighbor. Interviews with Dr. Cherilynn Morrow and Tatiana Loboda For more information: http://www.nasa.gov/centers/goddard/news/topstory/2006/vesper.html
