00:00Venus, a planet of acid skies and crushing heat. But 700 million years ago, this was not hell.
00:07Scientists now believe Venus could have thrived. Oceans, temperate climates, a twin of primordial
00:13Earth, until catastrophe rewrote its fate. Volcanic apocalypse, runaway greenhouse gases,
00:19oceans boiled, skies turned to poison, a planet strangled by its own air. Today probes hunt for
00:25clues in ancient rock. Why did Venus die? Could Earth share its fate? Venus is more than a corpse,
00:31it's a mirror, reflecting our fragile future.
