Atmospheric chemistry on Venus — New observations and laboratory studies to progress significant unresolved issues

Significant, unresolved questions on Venus’ atmospheric chemistry remain despite decades of study. Answering them requires systematic, targeted observations , increased integration of chemical, microphysical, and dynamical models, and supporting lab studies. Venus is our nearest exoplanet laboratory and a key for understanding divergent evolution.
