Brightness modulations of our nearest terrestrial planet Venus reveal atmospheric super-rotation rather than surface features

Establishing diagnostics for terrestrial exoplanets are crucial for their characterization. Here, the authors show brightness modulations of Venus are caused by planetary-scale waves superimposed on the super-rotating winds can be used to detect existence of an atmosphere if detected at an exoplanet...
