\begin{abstract}
Venus is the planet in the Solar System most similar to Earth in terms
of size and (probably) bulk composition. Until the mid-20th century,
scientists thought that Venus was a verdant world---inspiring
science-fictional stories of heroes battling megafauna in sprawling
jungles. At the start of the Space Age, people learned that Venus
actually has a hellish surface, baked by the greenhouse effect under a
thick, CO2-rich atmosphere. In popular culture, Venus was demoted from a
jungly playground to (at best) a metaphor for the redemptive potential
of extreme adversity. However, whether Venus was much different in the
past than it is today remains unknown. In this review, we show how
now-popular models for the evolution of Venus mirror how the scientific
understanding of modern Venus has changed over time. Billions of years
ago, Venus could have had a clement surface with water oceans. Venus
perhaps then underwent at least one dramatic transition in atmospheric,
surface, and interior conditions before present day. This review kicks
off a topical collection about all aspects of Venus's evolution and how
understanding Venus can teach us about other planets, including
exoplanets. Here we provide the general background and motivation
required to delve into the other manuscripts in this collection.
Finally, we discuss how our ignorance about the evolution of Venus
motivated the prioritization of new spacecraft missions that will
essentially rediscover Earth's nearest planetary neighbor---beginning a
new age of Venus exploration.%
