In 1967, Venera 4 found the Venusian magnetic field is much weaker than that of Earth. This magnetic field is induced by an interaction between the ionosphere and the solar wind, rather than by an internal dynamo in the core like the one inside the Earth. Venus's small induced magnetosphere provides negligible protection to the atmosphere against cosmic radiation. This radiation may result in cloud-to-cloud lightning discharges.

It is possible that Venus may have once had conditions suitable for life, as it is thought to have contained liquid water and a more temperate climate in its early history. However, due to a runaway greenhouse effect, Venus now has a thick toxic atmosphere and extreme temperatures that make it uninhabitable for life as we know it.
