   Venus was one of the first planets to be visited by spacecraft from Earth. Probes do not last long on its surface, where the atmosphere is 50 times denser than Earth's and temperatures are hot enough to melt lead. Orbital studies hint that Venus may have hosted habitable oceans before becoming inhospitable.
