Best Answer

Because its current planetary conditions do not permit life to be sustained or even develop.

In its present state, Venus has no water, no free oxygen, and a very dense atmosphere of carbon dioxide and sulfuric acid. The atmosphere traps solar heat and makes Venus the hottest of the terrestrial planets. Its average surface temperature is about 460°C (860°F).
