The planet Venus returns to the attention of the whole world after a series of extremely important announcements regarding the cosmic body were made, and it shows us something that few thought would happen very soon for humanity. More precisely, the planet Venus will be targeted by new exploration missions that will be launched by various space agencies, and this in the conditions in which it has not been exploded by mankind for a very long time.
The planet Venus should be explored by mankind again to see if there is, or not, life there, even in the form of microbes, or bacteria, and this is because it is improbable that there are signs of life in any other form . The missions that are currently being considered to explore the planet Venus vary from probes that will reach its atmosphere, to spacecraft that will remain at a distance from the surface, and take pictures from the altitude.

The planet Venus is also targeted by some extremely ambitious missions, more precisely these aim to bring to Earth samples from its atmosphere, something that is very difficult to achieve, but something that would be extremely important. This type of mission would be carried out in parallel with others that would monitor the atmosphere of the planet Venus, and that would send to Earth only data taken from a variety of sensors that would be mounted on probes sent into the planet's atmosphere.
"We hope this is the start of a new paradigm where you travel cheaply, more often and in a more focused way. There are these lingering mysteries on Venus that we can't really solve unless we go back there directly.
Scientists studying exoplanets began to realize that if we didn't understand the Earth-Venus differences in our own solar system, how would we be able to determine what we were beginning to see in classes of planets elsewhere? It was a shot in the arm for the Venus community,” Grinspoon told Space.com. "It's a kind of 'ground truth' that we can get from our own solar system."
The planet Venus is much too hot to analyze the surface, something many of you already know, but that does not mean that monitoring cannot be done from its atmosphere, or even from outside it. These missions were born, at least in part, after numerous controversies appeared last year regarding the possible existence of life in the atmosphere of the planet Venus, those theories being refuted just a few months after they appeared, without pre many surprises.
The planet Venus will remain in the attention of many scientists in the not too distant future, so it remains to be seen what will be revealed about what is happening there.
