Description:
The geology of Venus is discussed. The approximate age of the surface and the relative importance of large scale volcanic, tectonic and sedimentary processes are not known. Venus holds a very important role in comparative planetology. The investigation of comparable environments to Venus to test ideas of landform development on that planet are proposed.
