The speaker will describe the overall characteristics of Venus as well as the probable reasons why it is so different\, will also talk about recent\, intriguing suggestions that Venus might have been much more similar to the Earth hundreds of millions of years ago.  We should learn much more after the arrival of three new spacecraft missions planned for the next decade. \nCOVID-19 PROTOCOL:  Masks are welcome\, but not required at the Monthly Meeting.  Reminder if you are feeling ill or have been around someone who has been ill\, PLEASE STAY HOME!! \nMeeting Location:AŊPÉTU TÉČA Education Center (formerly the Fairview Community Center)1910 County Road B WestRoseville\, Minnesota 55113 \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n The hybrid meetings will be recorded on ZOOM\, and post-edited for publication after a few days on the MAS YouTube Channel. \nThis meeting will be held online using Zoom using the following URL: Zoom LINK \nYou can probably hear best with a headset but your computer’s speaker and microphone will also work. \nDialing-in with a phone: \n\nMeeting ID: 858 9703 9562\nPasscode: 085005\nNumber: +1 312 626 6799 US (Chicago)\n\nIn order to ensure the most success we are asking everyone to follow a couple of rules: \n\nDon’t turn on your camera – it sucks up bandwidth and we really don’t need to see you.\nKeep your microphone muted until you are prompted during a question and answer session during the presentation.
