Summary
[edit]DescriptionCatastrophe from the Clouds (2963973027).jpg |
Venus could have been much like the Earth. Instead, a stroll on the surface of our neighbor world would be like trying to walk at the bottom of the ocean, due to the thick air—not to mention like walking in an oven, due to the 400-degree centigrade temperature. This view was taken recently in ultraviolet light by the Venus Express orbiter (the color is arbitrary). The clouds betray the extremely fast winds at mid levels of the atmosphere, which circumnavigate the globe in just four days. At the surface, though, the scalding air is almost completely still.
