Good view through the telescope 🔭. Video was mediocre @best.
I can never quite hold the camera completely still but it's always a pretty sight to see the bright glow of Venus near the horizon at night.
I've read that if you replace Venus's atmosphere with Earth's, it would be around 55-70 degrees Celcius, which is incredibly uncomfortable but survivable in the short term without protective equipment and definitely survivable in the long term with it.
hello, I am creating my own seamless maps of Venus and I was wondering where I can find Pioneer Venus data to fill in gaps in the Magellan SAR and altimetric maps as well as a download the high resolution south pole map which I have a hard time finding everywhere except QuickMap. Is there a site where I can download this data, or do I have to order pioneer stuff from an archive and try to get my hands on the Magellan CDs?
I was like “wow look at that big star by the moon!”
My kindergartner says “mom…. Would you be embarrassed to know that it’s actually Venus and not a star!”
And I’m wondering if that’s correct Information.
