If familiarity breeds contempt, then enigma must breed fascination. So it has been with the planet Venus. "Earth's twin" in size and density, the second planet out from the sun is, in fact, the closest planet to us. Yet, thanks to its shroud of clouds, very little can be determined of its nature. At least, such was the state when I wrote my first article on the planet just three years ago.
