The composition of the planet is very similar to earth, with a solid iron core 3,000 km in radius, molten rocky mantle making up most of the planet, and solid outer crust that is thicker than previously presumed. Venus does not have plates, but instead the pressure from the mantle is relieved in a few small places.
Coming soon!
Song and video are coming soon!

Are we still doing a slideshow?
I don't know. That's Kelley' responsibility!
