Altitude Profile and Isotopic Composition for N2 From Pioneer Venus Mass Spectra
We report the highest resolution altitude profile and isotopic composition for N2 at Venus, to date. These results were obtained through re‐analysis of data acquired by the Pioneer Venus Large Probe Neutral Mass Spectrometer (LNMS).

Generation of gravity waves from thermal tides in the Venus atmosphere
Gravity waves are observed in Venus atmosphere, but their characteristics are not well-known. Here, the authors show spontaneous generation of gravity waves from the thermal tides in the Venus atmosphere as small-scale gravity waves are resolved in high ...

Venus: A planetary window into early Earth
Venus is the most similar planet to the Earth in the solar system in terms of planet size, mass and orbital velocity. Since the early 1960s, Venus has been an important target for human deep space exploration.

The Influence of Cloud Condensation Nucleus Coagulation on the Venus Cloud Structure
We present the Venus version of PlanetCARMA and demonstrate the significance of coagulation properties on the structure of the Venus cloud system. The composition of the smallest mode of particles in the Venus atmosphere, which likely serve as cloud ...

ATMOSPHERIC CHEMISTRY OF VENUS-LIKE EXOPLANETS [PDF]
We use thermodynamic calculations to model atmospheric chemistry on terrestrial exoplanets that are hot enough for chemical equilibira between the atmosphere and lithosphere, as on Venus. The results of our calculations place constraints on abundances of spectroscopically observable gases, the surface temperature and pressure, and the mineralogy of the

Parker Solar Probe (PSP) conducted several flybys of Venus while using Venus’ gravity for orbital adjustments to enable its daring passes of the Sun. During these flybys, PSP turned to image the nightside of Venus using the Wide-field Imager for Solar ...

To the question of including additional technical means in the Venus exploration program
The current issue of expanding the scheme of the experiment for the contact research of Venus by including a multirotor aircraft as an additional technical means of research in a prospective expedition is considered.

Exploring the Habitability of Venus: Conceptual Design of a Small Atmospheric Probe
The possible presence of life in the atmosphere of Venus has been debated frequently over the last 60 years. The discussion was recently reignited by the possible detection of phosphine (PH3), but several other chemicals potentially relevant for life ...
