   What will NASA's Davidi+ mission reveal about Venus' atmosphere?

   • When DAVINCI+ hits the venusian cloud tops, it will become the first NASA mission to study Venus’ atmosphere since 1978, and the first from any nation since the USSR’s Vega missions in 1985. Its ability to directly sample its surroundings means DAVINCI+ will be able to put together a complete profile of Venus’ atmosphere, layer by layer.
