Scheduled to launch in the early 2030s, DAVINCI will explore Venus with both a spacecraft and a descent probe. The probe will be the first in the 21st century to brave Venus’ atmosphere as it descends from above the planet’s clouds down to its surface. Here are some of DAVINCI’s coming “firsts” in Venus exploration: https://go.nasa.gov/3BmijeJ | NASA's Marshall Space Flight Center

This video combines real radar imagery and surface data from past Venus missions, revealing a world hidden beneath thick clouds and extreme heat. The audio is a sonification of scientific measurements, since sound cannot travel through space, offering an immersive way to experience Earth’s most hostile planetary neighbor.
