Venus has dense clouds and thick atmosphere, yet there is no evidence for water on the surface. Why?
◦ The water has all been taken up in minerals on the surface due to weather long ago because of high chemical weathering rates.
◦ Water could not survive as liquid water on the surface because it is too hot.
◦ The water is bound up as sulfuric acids and other acids in the atmosphere.
◦ It is hard to know because the clouds obscure the surface and only a few probes have survived landing.
