Why spaceship visiting Venus are destroyed?

For one thing spaceships ain't real, but if the were they would be destroyed because Venus is too hot! It will destroy anything that lands on it. Comments: Spacecraft from the USSR have landed on Venus. They were "real". Some were destroyed by the atmospheric pressure before they landed. Some landed, but were destroyed fairly quickly, probably by the heat.


What kind of matter dominates in the universe today What kind dominated immediately after the big bang?

I think the question is a bit mixed up, but I think this is the answer. Scientists talk about "mass-energy" as a unified thing. Just after the Big Bang "energy", in the form of radiation energy, was dominant. However, today it seems that "mass" is the dominant form. In other words, "matter" now dominates the Universe. There is the complication of "Dark Matter" and "Dark Energy". Cosmologists still don't really know what these are. So that puts some uncertainty into this discussion of matter and energy. Some scientists believe that it is now "energy" that dominates, because of the discovery of Dark Energy. (Also, cosmologists think that both "matter" and "anti-matter" were created, but that there was a slight imbalance in favour of matter and the anti-matter seems to have been destroyed, leaving just "matter".)
