The planet Venus is the closest to Earth among all those that exist in the solar system, but it is also one that we don't really know that much about even though it is so close to us. The main problem lies in the fact that the planet Venus has such an unfriendly environment that not even the robots sent by the Americans or the Russians could survive there for more than a few hours, but NASA does not give up so easily and has approved two more missions to explore the planet.
The planet Venus would have been the first in the solar system that could have supported life, those from NASA being of the opinion that at one point it would have had a climate very similar to that of the Earth, including oceans. Considering that we now know so little about the planet Venus, NASA has decided to fund two missions with a total of 1 billion dollars to learn more about what is happening on this planet so close. of ours.
Planet Venus: The AMAZING Announcement and Impact for Humanity
The planet Venus will have its atmosphere analyzed as part of a mission named DAVINCI+, and its goal will be to discover as many of the chemical elements that exist in the planet's atmosphere. Through this mission, those from NASA want to find out if there was once an ocean on the planet Venus, or other areas with water, but also how the dense atmosphere that covers the surface of the cosmic body from one account to another was formed .
“DAVINCI+ will measure the composition of Venus' atmosphere to understand how it formed and evolved, as well as to determine whether the planet ever had an ocean. The mission consists of a descent sphere that will shoot through the planet's thick atmosphere, making precise measurements of noble gases and other elements to understand why Venus's atmosphere is a runaway greenhouse compared to Earth's. VERITAS will map the surface of Venus to determine the geological history of the planet and understand why it developed so differently from Earth. Orbiting Venus with a synthetic aperture radar, VERITAS will plot surface elevations over nearly the entire planet to create 3D reconstructions of the topography and confirm whether processes such as plate tectonics and volcanism are still active on Venus."
The planet Venus will have created a map of its surface as part of a mission named VERITAS, special instruments will be sent to record images of the planet's surface from a height. 3D maps with the topography that the planet Venus has are to be created within this important mission that NASA will carry out to reveal to us more of the secrets that exist there and have not yet been observed.
The planet Venus will only be visited by these missions somewhere around 2028-2030, so we still have a lot to wait until everything will be put into practice.
