Lately, Earth's sister planet has taken center stage in one of the greatest quests in science today: the search for life-bearing exo-planets across the Milky Way galaxy. This quest hinges on several essential questions: Why did planet Earth live, and why did Venus die?

Experts share valuable lessons from Venus on the origins of life, acid rain, ozone loss, global warming and other questions. They make the passionate case for further exploring Earth's "evil twin sister."
