Impractical practicality
Why do the probes fail so fast on Venus? Is it just because we haven't developed materials yet that can withstand more than a few hours in the 800 degree acid oven of Venus?

Mars must be the easier goal for now.

Don't forget 90 atmospheres of pressure.

So you're telling me there isn't going to be a Venus colony for a while :(

I played surviving Mars recently a fun game where you terraform Mars. Now I'm imaging terraforming Venus would a 100 times harder.How would the greenhouse gasses be dealt with to begin with.
