   • Contrary to its name, Venus is a hellish place. Venus is named after the Roman goddess of love and fertility, and before the space age, the perception of the planet was driven by science fiction.
   • Venus is still geologically active. The low number of craters on Venus indicates that geologic processes may be recycling aged landscapes into pockets of fresh ground.
   • Nasty clouds populate its crushing atmosphere. Venus has a dense atmosphere. When the Venera 4 probe descended through that gassy sheath in the mid-1960s, it measured the composition to be primarily carbon dioxide.
   • Venus twirls in a different direction. Almost all planets in our solar system, Earth included, spin counterclockwise on their axes. Venus is the only oddball that pirouettes clockwise.

   Can you see Venus in a wide-field imager?

   • Smothered in thick clouds, Venus’ surface is usually shrouded from sight. But in two recent flybys of the planet, Parker used its Wide-Field Imager, or WISPR, to image the entire nightside in wavelengths of the visible spectrum – the type of light that the human eye can see – and extending into the near-infrared.
