Venus is the most badass planet. We don't even joke about sending someone there. Not even in sci-fi. Venus is literally worse than biblical Hell. You wanna talk thick atmosphere, when the Soviets sent robots to try and take a couple pictures before melting, they didn't even need parachutes to land. They jettisoned their parachutes at 30,000 feet and just fell the rest of the way. Because when you're on Venus, falling 5 miles without a parachute is the least bad thing thats gonna happen to you.

Venus is where the Devil is going to go when he dies Even the rocks are like "fuuuuck". IIRC thats a basalt plain 'cause Venus doesn't have continental drift so the pressure just builds up in the mantle and every few hundred million years the crust just splits open and blows the gently caress up and covers the whole planet with fresh lava.

The upper atmosphere of Venus is apparently more liveable than on the surface of Mars, having an atmosphere that's more similar to earth's. living on venus would kind of be like living on a hot gas giant, you'd just have to make floating habitats.

Indeed there's little chance of doing anything on the surface of Venus. However, hanging in the perpetually thick clouds? Hell yeah.

Prettz posted:well it would be cool if we could somehow extract some of that stored up heat on venus to do useful stuff Indeed. How about dropping gigantic tubes that contain a series of wind turbines. Such that the constant upwind of the Venusian atmosphere will turn the turbines within these giant tubes (1,000's of them spread in a floating grid across the Venusian atmosphere) and both generate electricity and dump atmospheric heat into space.

unfortunately for the steampunks we'll have very efficient fission and/or fusion reactors by the time we consider floating around in venus' atmosphere. energy won't be much of a concern at that point, but materials like oxygen will still be p important.

It'll be great to find an alien planet with primitive life so we can just murder the gently caress out of It and get a confidence boost before the aliens that seeded our planet actually come back to see what happened

Why not just push Venus further from the sun, almost as far as earth (just opposite side of the sun as us), and let it cool down so we can live there?

Venus's temp is not entirely related to its distance to the Sun, just the same as Mar's coldness is not a function of its distance from the Sun either. Each planet is on the edge of the "Habitable Zone" and could be habitable with the right atmosphere. If you could transport the Venusian atmosphere to Mars each planet would be more human friendly.

none of you are ever leaving this planet. Mercury is a dead rock, floating in space half cold and frozen like that bum in the Detroit building. The radiation will kill you with no atmosphere and no chance. Venus is a pressure filled methane poo poo house where it rains acid and is hotter than microwaves mom . Ur all gonna die . Mars . You'll never leave once you're there . Trapped on a loving hell hole just far enough to see the sun and all that remains of your dumb life on earth , the most crippling loneliness overwhelming you knowing your fragile gay babby bones will never allow you to walk on earth again . You're alive on mars like somebody is alive in Antarctica . Forget anywhere past mars , Jupiter is a gas ball of death poisoning everybody with radiation. You're all gonna die on this gay earth
