Thanks to the cameras of the Akatsuki spacecraft, scientists have received a new view of Venus.
An IR2 camera on board the Japanese spacecraft Akatsuki, which is exploring the atmosphere of Venus, has photographed Venus. Many of us are seeing these images for the first time. Venus looks really fantastic on them, not at all the way we saw it earlier in the pictures.
It should be noted that the colors in the photographs do not correspond to reality. They were specially exaggerated in order to make it easier for us to see the dynamic environment of the atmosphere of the second planet from the Sun, which is famous for its high temperatures and acid rain.
We remind you that in 2016, part of the scientific instruments of the spacecraft failed, but the mission is still ongoing.
