Venus has long remained an enigmatic sister planet to Earth- seemingly similar in size, yet covered in clouds of sulfuric acid that betray the volatile world lurking beneath. While Mars, Jupiter, and even far-flung Pluto have opened their secrets to robotic spacecraft from Earth, Venus remains the least explored of our planetary neighbors. Often termed Earth's "evil twin,” Venus hosts crushing atmospheric pressures, scorching temperatures that could melt lead, and skies filled perpetually with dense clouds that don’t even let a ray of sunlight touch the surface. This combination creates a planet so hostile that it has destroyed every probe sent to explore its surface; some lasted mere minutes before surrendering to the planet’s wrath.
So, what views did we see beneath the thick cloud cover shrouding the planet? What do they tell us about the past of the Earth’s evil twin? Finally, and most importantly, what secrets will the upcoming Indian, American, and European missions to Venus reveal?

When we aren't trying to kill each other and the planet, mankind has accomplished some truly incredible achievements.
When is that, exactly? There is never a time when we aren't wasting resources killing each other. When the US landed on the moon "in peace for all mankind", we were also bombing the bejesus out of Vietnam. What few impressive feats we have accomplished are nothing compared to the never-ending harm we cause one another. Maybe I'm just getting too cynical in my old age, but I got this way by watching people. I don't think our species is going to make it.
@@samuelhulin180our species will make it, we’ve been here for hundreds of thousands of years.
Js like married couple, when they not fighting then get a lot done lol
@@derrickbronson3099 nothing will last forever, even the universe.

The Soviets really did some remarkable space exploration when it comes to Venus
And in general. Invented satellites, invented space travel, first nation to land on another celestial body (the moon), invented and successfully deployed interplanetary probes, first nation to probe another planet, first woman in space, first spacewalk, etc. etc.
Whatever about their system of government, their pioneering of space exploration is an incredible gift to humanity.
Yeah, they crashed and burned everything when it came getting near to our own satellite moon and we're lead to believe the landed and recorded stuff on one of the most hostile planets in our solar system. Pull the other one!
Going from Earth’s Sister Planet to Earth’s Evil Twin is wild! 💀😂
Both (sister/evil twin) are childish. About as scientific as online gossip.
Wrong, science has always had strong sociological connotations. Most of the Latin words etc that you would probably think "scientific" simply refer to exactly similar ideas, just hidden behind a language barrier.
By utilizing these denominations, we more easily allow the open field of science to be explored and pondered by all, as science is intended. It is for that exact reason why such titles are more scientific as it is less exclusionary and allows people to ponder the wonders and findings of science which leads to more great researchers and amateur discoveries.
Venus did nothing wrong. 😅
You should see my video of the real Venus, it's exactly what you said, evil. It's not what you think it is At All. These people tell incredibly huge lies.
I really wish we could get orbital probes to Uranus and Neptune. Venus is cool, but I find those ice moons more interesting.
Europa and Titan need more time!
I think a Cassini style mission to Uranus is actually underway. It's still in it's very early phases through so it'll probably be like 20 years before we get our first images
@@notgreg123 that would be amazing.
Sending a probe into the dark and cavernous depths of Uranus would be fascinating.
I find both Titan and Pluto extremely fascinating. I envy future generations who will be here to see our knowledge of these grow, or maybe even a manned mission who knows?
I went to Venus a couple of times back in my younger days when I was doing acid
You were not alone
I went to Mars
I once snorted a 1g line of K while on lsd. Seemed like a good idea. I was definitely on another planet and folded into other dimensions. I don't think it's possible to describe in words that level of fked but there's some pretty good cgi fractal sht that comes close 😂.
@@terranaxiomuk I never done any of that k I've never even seen any of it but I have done my share of LSD back in my younger days and PCP as well
I went to mars doing edibles @user-oq2wx4el2p
I remember scientists in the 1950s theorizing Venus being an ocean of carbonated water and even a swampy environment.
Scientists in the very early days With the Mariner Flyby didn’t think cameras results justified their weight.
They were all about the data and chemical compositions.
They were initially right. Then some things happened and the narrative switched to it being inhospitable again
@@DanielDamiens what things happened?
From my vantage point in 2024, not including cameras was shortsighted, no pun intended. The fascination of seeing another planet's surface roped me in to a love of astronomy in 4th grade in 1977 when the first images of Mars came back. There's many like me out there, public support is so important.
@DanielDamiens I mean around 1000 degrees Fahrenheit is pretty damn uninhabitable
@@MumblingMann That along with the 1,400 psi average atmosphere pressure makes the carbon dioxide supercritical, in other words neither a liquid or a gas. It acts like both, and it's capable of destroying many materials, even titanium. It is very reactive and that together with the sulfuric acid, gaseous sulfur and sulfur dioxide in the atmosphere makes the surface environment incredibly corrosive. Chlorine and phosphorus are also present. The utter absence of water at the surface and the heat are certainly why life cannot exist there, but there is water in the clouds. Enough for possible last microbial survivors of Venus' oceans to survive there today.
Where’s the Snow and crazy Mushrooms? Warframe lied to me.
The "killer issue" with Venus landers is the 460C surface temp. It's hotter outside the lander than is insider.
The temperature on Venus being so hot is a bold face. Lie. People human people live on Venus. This in a very nice environment. Every planet has life, why would God make planets without life? Stop listening to our government, NASA and our scientists.
Right behind that is the extreme corrosiveness of the atmosphere, and the fact the carbon dioxide in the lower atmosphere is supercritical. It is neither a liquid or a gas, and very reactive with titanium.
@@taras3702Most of Earth's rocky surface is covered in substance as dangerous as Venus' atmosphere. Ask OceanGate ...
Did he just tacitly say that Pluto is still a planet? Go you go boy!
Come on! Don't be pedantic...After all It has been voted "dwarf Planet" by 237 or 257 (I don't remember) astronomers out of 2500 (when at the end of the IAU most of them had already left)... we can leave It...
Always nice to see the broadening of our knowledge through missions to other planets.
"Our knowledge?" Most Americans have no idea that any probe was ever sent to Venus.
@@randymillhouse791 In the 70s and 80s, yes.
@@RideAcrossTheRiver Not the phone generations. If it ain't on "Hick-Tok, it never happened.
@@randymillhouse791 Those navel-gazers are harmless and certainly they don't determine reality.
@@RideAcrossTheRiver But they will determine social security funding. I hope they stay ignorant and just pay their taxes.
This is an excellent documentary.
The first probe that touched down on Venus lasted 12 minutes before collapsing under the immense pressure and super high temperature. The next one lasted just under an hour unlock Mercury that gets 750 ° on the daytime side and -300 on the night side Venus hovers around 880 2900 degrees night or day Venus revolves very slowly as its day is longer than its year.
Not Praticle to even think about visiting our Neighbors!
What amazes me as much as the missions themselves, is that I was alive to see each of them. Before Mariner 2, I remember not knowing whether Venus was a desert world beneath the clouds, or covered in lush jungles.
If you knew how the planet spins, you would know everything you say would be impossible.
@@marktanska6331
If you are referring to the retrograde rotation of Venus, that was not known before Mariner 2 in 1962. Before that, I and everyone else did not know whether Venus was a desert world beneath the clouds, or covered in lush jungles.
Where was Zsa Zsa Gabor? I thought Venus was loaded with lonely nymphos.
Sci-Fi speculation makes interesting but inaccurate stories.
@@patrowan7206 Also the very slow rate of spin. That probably caused evaporation of all the water into the atmosphere.
Clever to put an ad right before playing sound recording of Venus.
"and here's what was recorded:"
HELLO I'VE BEEN TRYING TO REACH YOU REGARDING YOUR CAR'S EXTENDED WARRANTY
colour pics of Venus in 1982...didn't tell us that on the news in my country. in fact i only discovered it thru youtube few years ago !
I only heard about the Russian mission to Venus that landed and sent back pics so was very interesting to me.
Same here, I don't recall hearing about this, then, either. I discovered the images on CZcams recently too.
It was in astronomy books from 1982.
The nessage we will get from exploring Venus is "STAY HOME."
It's actually pretty amazing that the probes lasted any time at all as the surface of the planet is so hot the rocks glow red. The planet is so hot it would almost instantly melt lead. Now if they produced floating microbes several miles up the atmosphere is a 70° f which is a Paradise.
This is what I read: Due to the crushing atmospheric pressure on Venus and its hot temperature, photographing is hard to do. Thus, the U.S. orbiter Magellan and Soviet spacecraft mapped most of the planet using radar instead, which can pass through Venus' clouds ✌️😎👍
Truly a fascinating video! Hats off to the Russian and American Spacecraft Engineers for their probe design efforts in their attempts to gather as much information about Venus as possible. Thank you SOU for this video. Blessings! 🙏🙏🙏❤💐
Don't you just love all these geniuses in the comment section? Im glad they're here instead of out there working for space x or NASA.
You mean NASAwood?
yet here you are...
I've always been interested in Venus. Very enjoyable and informative. Thank you for sharing this video.
The sound was interesting from a probe and the pictures were great from different probes thank you
Very impressed with this video. I have always been interested in astronomy and physics. It was things like this that drove me to enter those professions. Thank you for feeding my insatiable curiosity about the universe and the wonders that we discove
i was hoping that someday humanity would explore the universe as a species, not as separate nations. sadly, that will never happen.
Never say never.
Yup, never😐
Aliens would have to land at every capitol on earth before we all United under one banner, unfortunately.
Religion will never let us be united as a species. We're all too focused on petty differences to get along.
@@alexandermills5281.. political creeds nowadays are more divisive than religions...
Pressure on the surface of Venus is equivalent to the pressure experienced at an ocean depth of about 3000 feet here on Earth.
It's so interesting Soviet Union conquered Venus on year 1983 and that is in long time on history what sounds amazing. Venus is interesting planet because it's earth's sister but why it's evil sister in my opinion Venus is good sister, Venus is Romen's Goddes of Love. I believe there would be even microscopic life on Venus. By the way Sou did you saw The Nishimura comet, I didin't saw that because here in Northen Europe's Finland is too much of clouds. That video about Venus was really good thank you SOU! 🌍🚀🛰🌑☀️🪐🌠🌌
Bacterial life? Not on the surface, but maybe floating in the atmosphere.
Hi do you love space? If yes do you want to join my space community?
I have never seen something like that before... It's so amazing.
The images of Venus' surface gave goosebumps 😮. Really appreciate this well explained interesting insights. 👍👏
It looked alot like a frozen desert on earth.
Looks scary
@@charzemc..a "frozen desert?" That aggregate was completely alien... The only Rock like that on Earth is from volcanic eruptions,, but that lava has cracked and cooled and remelted and cracked again over and over...
Me also,, the surface of that world looks unimaginably hellish.... Like a huge haunted house 24 million mi away......
Very freaky
So we just arnt gonna mention the coolest part about Venus, the fact that at a certain elevation. Due to Venus's atmosphere makeup it has a habitable zone substainable for life in theory if we could could have a floating city😮. Cool video still, but that fact by far draws the most attention to this planet and also explains why most missions are planned at that elevation in Venus's atmosphere. Cool stuff✅
We can have Lando be in charge of Cloud City on Venus.
If life exists in the atmosphere it is most likely some kind of microbe, not intelligent life with cities, lol.
What I understood the reason for the high temperatures was the dense atmosphere. It's like when you stand on longs peak. It's cooler than in Estes Park Colorado. If there's a mountain taller than everest is the temperature where you could research and video. A british astronomer stated that it was the dense atmosphere and its proximity to the sun causing the temperature not carbon or global warming. AS ISOLATING THE VARIABLES Erth and venus temp was the same.
That would be cool. I just wouldn't want to be there if that floating city fell to the surface, though!
So they built a spaceship to send a drill and a microphone to Venus so that it can record the sound of the drill. That is an epic milestone!
I am amazed that we never did more over the years. With the expansion of technology it would seem sensible.
The problem is the equation cost x results. If you dont expect revolutionary results, sending probes year after year is just waste of money.
The only new technology is smartphones--little computers.
Once they shot down a few alien ships and got their tech, space exploration had to stop. So nothing really passes the safe zone.

Very informational video, now I know which planet is least studied and which one is most studied
Looked a lot like the volcanic regions of Hawaii and Iceland.
Magma plume systems ... Mars has them too at Tharsis Montes.
Mate here is a tip. A lot of the time I couldn't tell what were legitimate imges of Venus and what were dress up pics. Your video is over edited. Interesting topic subject which drew my attention, but if you put venus images in your title, stick to actual images only. But other than that, good work.
Yep.
There is literally no footage give him a break 🤷♀️
I could. They’re so obvious. He’s done a really good job.
I recommend Astrum he always show the actual images, let you know what’s cgi or not, and doesn’t over add useless filler scenes.
There’s no footage, but there are images from Venus
Venera means Venus in Russian and some other Slavic languages
Excellent video. This is what I always wanted to know about Venues, its missions, it's map, etc...

@@ericaespinosa4030 Oh ok, you’re alright. Sorry to bother
Excellent informative video! Thanks.
Point of error: Maxwell Montes is over 60 degrees north, nowhere near the equator. Perhaps the writer is confusing it with Aphrodite Terra?
Phenomenal .
Thank you for putting this vid together
Great wideo! I was just curious and clicked on it. But after several seconds it has captured my me and I watched the whole wideo 👍
Extremely well done 😊
This episode reminded me of that fantastic episode of Cosmos, Heaven and Hell...
Great video, really enjoyed this!
The NASA plan for a manned Apollo flyby mission in the 70s is fascinating.
10:00
(under 90 atm/bar pressure) the lens cap/s failed to separate/eject.
I'm still waiting for an accurate first person simulator of what it would be like directly on the surface of Venus. Especially with Unreal Engine 5+.
Meanwhile on Earth, we've been making strides to create our own local greenhouse-trapped hellscape
Ain't that a bitch!!!
Very interesting video. I wish the graphics were better labeled. I wasn't certain what were real photos and which were created.
If the atmosphere is so dense it doesn't allow "even a ray of sunlight touch the surface" then said surface would be pitch black. But Soviet surface probes had no problem photographing it.
Tell me you don't understand how this shit works without actually saying it.
You probably think Pluto is completely pitch black XD
Atmospheric scattering allows the surface to be illuminated. They just worded it poorly. I think what they meant to say is that you wouldn't be able to tell where the sun is. A bit like very cloudy days here on earth but way way worse
Yes, there's no direct sunlight same as an overcast day on Earth.
Visibility on the surface of Venus is equivalent to that of a very overcast day on earth: the sunlight is not directly reaching the surface but it's scattered through the clouds so that light still reaches the surface.
On Venus you'd still be able to see as far as 4-5 km in the distance and a few hundred meters looking up. You wouldn't be able to see mountain tops though: they'd be enshrouded in the clouds, you'd only be able to see the foothills.
@@GiampietroDiSanto The cloud base on Venus is some 35 km high.
I wonder what the pressure and temperature is on top of the Venus highest mountain.
Same pressure but only 400 C.
@@RideAcrossTheRiver I heard it was nice at the top of the atmosphere. :)
@@damianbutterworth2434Where the sulfuric acid clouds are?
@@RideAcrossTheRiver lol. Your not coming with me then? :)
@@damianbutterworth2434 Mars seems nicer, thanks.
Little advice, if you use bars (atmospheres) at first, then psi or pascals, you could just aswell use bars
It will be easier to cool down Venus than to warm up Mars.
I can't wait to go there one day!
RIP IN THE FUTURE MATE
Have you tried astral projection?
Runaway greenhouse effect pure bllshte
Yep, earth really is half baked.
That Russian Venera lens-cap designer was asked to spend some vacation time in a Siberian Gulag, I believe. . .
Modern Western propaganda in its idiocy, lies and aggression is worse than it was in the Soviet Union.
Thats pretty wild right there. 😮
Incredible. We were not supposed to ever see Venus like this and that amazes me 😊
Why were we never supposed to see it?
Who said?
Atmosphere is what stops cosmic rays; not magnetic field.
The data shown for the mariner 2 mission is a classic example on how to mislead with information. While the numbers in Fahrenheit are clearly rough estimates (300 - 400) the transformation into Celsius are oddly precise (149-204) and so misrepresenting a precision that wasn't there.
Venus seems like a waste of time. However i do wonder with no magnetic field protecting it how does it still have an atmosphere?
Carbon dioxide is heavy and has triple molecular bonds.
We have not inhabited a relatively calm planet like the moon or Mars...no way we will inhabit a scorching hot corrosive place like that, even if we were to use a floating or flying ship to help with the temperature and pressure we are so far away that I will absolutely never survive to see it.
Beautiful photos and animations, and a specific comment, but with these "oceans" on Venus (unless... magma :), at plus 500 C, the Narrator's imagination has already run away :) Thank you for sharing!
Amazing what we can accomplish we we let go of our rivalries. I love our potential.
i try to get out and view her every night. She is my heavenly night Star. Part of a vast, nearly unfathomable reality.
Informative video ❤
Fascinating. What a waste of a perfectly good planet which could have been habitable. That includes Mars. Wish Venus was located where Mars is. It would still have its oceans.
I wish we spent our money on space research rather than funding pointless wars
Studying Venus for habitability is like studying Hell for a home. If only more people would think about the latter, humanity would reconsider its ways.
Venus, PERHAPS, is where HELL is ...✌️
I like Venus because you can cook a pizza anywhere.
nope, that’s Saturn 🪐
Yep, that is Planet Hell. Or maybe Hell is Mercury.
images start here 9:38
This is Venus.
Now entering our studio are today’s Venutian contestants…
One common factor in Astronomy topics are the SPECULATION with calculus.
Weird that the picture isn't highly obscured by heat wave distortion huh? Weird that there isn't ANY heat distortion at all huh?
16.02 Hmmmm.... It seem to me ( but I could be wrong) That the artist representation of lightening on Venus is WRONG... The density is so high on the planet that lightening on Venus NEVER occur from the clouds to the surface but Between clouds themselves. Can someone confirm the erratum or check if I had bad information on that topic?
Lightening: to make something lighter
Lightning: electrical discharge during a storm
Anyone know the background music from 3:30 please :)
The sound recording was interesting, but what could they possibly have expected to hear on the planet? Also, it's rather sobering to think of just how hostile a planet like Venus or Jupiter really is to us humans. Not just the lack of breathable air, but the heat and pressure and a caustic atmosphere, and possibly radiation and such. Humans will never walk the surface of Venus without extra heavy-duty protection, and even that may not last very long.
Of course, I'm always a little concerned about the photos we see from the surface of Venus and Mars. Are these photos enhanced in some way, or are we seeing exactly what human eyes would see if they were in the same place?
Acoustic data can reveal more about pressure, density, and composition of the gasses on the surface.
Plus, if you're going to all that trouble, and a microphone is somewhat lightweight, well, why not?
Meanwhile, flat earthers says....
Never mind
The camera team spoiled the Venera missions every time , who were they?
Soviets.
and yet we still can't see who stole that last donut in our own cameras lol
GOOD SUMMARY BOYO GRACIAS!
A tortured hellhole of a planet, I almost feel sorry for it.
The USSR sent a Franklin stove to Venus?
Use the gaseous substance vented around the entry probe could give survival and vise versa.
Interesting to have little to no magnetosphere. I understood that that could lead to the stripping of the atmosphere by the solar wind. Seemingly not on Venus.
One day we will build a real STARSHIP ENTERPRISE .
The Venera landers always looked to me like a Franklin potbelly stove. It even has chimneys. No need for a Franklin stove on the surface of Venus though. You could bake bread or cookies just in the open air there.
If the James Web was looking at our Solar system from light years away, they would herald it as amazing...having 3 rocky planets in the goldilocks zone, thus 3 potentially habitable planets.
But it is ultimately a waste of effort unless we find a goldilocks zone planet with a moon like we have to provide stability.
Food Network is considering cooking a turkey on Venus next mission
The Atmospheric Pressure on Venus is 1,350 pounds to the square inch. (SPLAT)
The Atmospheric Pressure on Earth is 14 pounds to the square inch.
No Crater was made upon landing ,surprisingly.
I thought the surface temperature is closer to 400⁰C, not Fahrenheit.
So if we were able to land on Venus and mars, why can’t we land on mercury??
You will find the accurate detailed expanded amazing information about Venus and many other things on the Cosmic Agency channel and on their other channels and website linked to it🛸
Those close up views of Venus landscape freak me out
Why is the first photo of Venus have blurred out parts in it ?
I think the robots probably don't last because tentacles spawn while they are traversing the clouds and drag the robot towards a gaping maw full of teeth.
DAMN haven't been there a full minute and all ready drilling for oil . 😢
Im conflicted between if the ship would be heavily corroded by the agressive enviroment or somewhat intact by the lack of oxygen. (Now im thinking it wasnt probably be made of steel so maybe no corrosion)
