Quake (natural Phenomenon) - Venusquake

A venusquake is a quake that occurs on the planet Venus.

A venusquake may have caused a new scarp and a landslide to form. An image of the landslides was taken in November 1990 during the first flight around Venus by the Magellan spacecraft. Another image was taken on July 23, 1991 as the Magellan spacecraft revolved around Venus for the second time. Each image was twenty-four kilometers (14.4 miles) across and thirty-eight kilometers (twenty-three miles) long, and was centered at two degrees south latitude and seventy-four degrees east longitude. The pair of Magellan images shows a region in Aphrodite Terra, within a steeply sloping valley that is cut by many fractures (Faults).
