Meet Venus: our most lethal planetary neighbour. Cloaked entirely in reflective, sulfuric acid clouds, it has evaded many attempts to observe its inner workings by obliterating any visitor to its surface. Through incredible feats of engineering, from the Soviet Venera landers to NASA’s Magellan mission, we’ve finally unveiled its true face of sprawling volcanoes and fractured plains. Join us in this supercut as we explore the planet that no human could survive, and find out what its extreme environment can teach us about Earth.
