Strange patterns in the clouds of Venus found

[Still Waters]

Scientists have discovered mysterious streaking patterns crossing huge distances in the clouds of Venus. 

The discovery is giving us new insight into the brutal conditions and climate on the strange planet second closest to the Sun.

Based on advanced computer modelling, the team thinks moving air caused by polar jet streams, similar to those on Earth, could be responsible for these irregularities – which can stretch some 10,000 kilometres (more than 6,200 miles) across.
