Feb 22, 2023 · Sending a lander to Venus presents several huge engineering problems. Granted, we’d get a break from the nail-biting entry, descent and landing, since Venus’ atmosphere is so thick, a lander would settle gently to the surface like a stone settles in water — no sky cranes or retrorockets required.
With Venus, even our machinery can't survive past a few hours on the surface. Mining would be out, there would be no water. I really don't even see why there is any debate of...
