Venus and Earth were similarly sized spuds, so they should have cooled at the same rate. But other than internal heat, there was something else keeping Venus warm: the sun.

Venus will pass between the Earth and sun on Saturday during what's called an inferior conjunction. But don't plan on seeing the linkup. The sight is extremely difficult to spot without special ...
