The robots that explored Venus were named Venera. The Venera program consisted of a series of Soviet missions that sent spacecraft to Venus between 1961 and 1984.
The robot sent to Venus was named Venera. Developed by the Soviet Union, the Venera program included several spacecraft that successfully landed on the planet and transmitted data back to Earth, providing valuable insights into Venus's atmosphere and surface conditions. The most notable missions included Venera 7, which was the first spacecraft to send data from the surface of another planet.
The first spacecraft to observe Venus was the Venera 3 in 1962.
