1. • • The cloud cloaked surface of our sister planet Venus is normally only visible via sophisticated radar and/or infrared imaging from orbit. But on two recent flybys, NASA’s Parker Solar Probe used its Wide Field Imager for Parker Solar Probe (WISPR) to capture Venus’ entire nightside in the visible spectrum, says NASA.

    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.
