Not that much of a surprise that Venus is still probably geologically active with volcanoes currently erupting. Given the thick atmosphere of Venus (in spite of the fact that with its closeness to the Sun the solar wind will be gradually stripping away the outer atmosphere) implies that the atmosphereric gases are being topped up by some mechanism, most likely volcanism.
