Have people ever walked on the surface of Venus?

No, and it is unlikely that they will do so in our lifetime. The surface of Venus has an average surface temperature of 867 degrees F. Mars is a more plausible option.


Is it possible that venus supported life in the past?

It's very unlikely.


Will anyone visit Venus?

It's highly unlikely - in the foreseeable future. The environment is horrendous, not only for humans but also mechanical and electrical modules. (Lead would melt on the surface of Venus). Because of this, and the lack of any reason, bar understanding why Venus is so hostile. There is unlikely to be any human visit to Venus.


Is Venus' surface of the planet able to support life on?

no it is to hot for it to indoor life


Does it only rain acid on Venus's?

The surface temperature of Venus is nearly 480`C, while the boiling point of sulfuric acid is 327`C, so it is unlikely that there would be any form of precipitation on Venus.


How much breathable air is on Venus' surface?

The atmosphere of Venus is not breathable by any life form that we know of. Our probes survive less than a minute on the surface.


Does Venus' have life in it's clouds?

This is unknown, but unlikely. The clouds of Venus are intensely hot, and filled with sulfuric acid. If any Venusian (Venerian? Venereal? Cytherian?) life forms exist, they are unlikely to be "life as we know it". However, there are Earthly life forms, cyano-bacteria, which live in the deep oceans, next to the sulfuric, volcanic vents on the sea floor. If any Earthly life could exist on Venus, that's probably it!


Has Venus's ever had life?

There is a possibility that there was life on Venus about a billion years ago, but no evidence is available to support the fact - and is unlikely to be gained in the near future. Venus is just too hostile to our current probes, let alone human exploration. Also, because the surface of Venus has been reformed by massive lava flows, any evidence would have probably been eradicated in the process. The jury is out, but it seems more than likely that Venus did have life, not necessarily on land, but more than likely in the oceans. What that life was, is any ones guess.


Why life is not found on Mercury and Venus?

Venus is simply too hot to support any sort of life, with surface temperatures exceeding 800 degrees Fahrenheit. Mercury barely has an atmosphere to support life and shield it from harmful radiation and regulate temperature. Mercury is much like the moon, only it gets much hotter during the day.Addendum:Actually, we don't know if there is or isn't some form of life on Venus. While life on Mercury is highly unlikely, there are environments on Earth that closely mirror the surface of Venus where life thrives here. Consider what has been learned about the immediate vicinty of thermal vents along the mid-Atlantic ridge in the past ten years.


What is One reason that life as we know it is unlikely to exist on Venus is because .?

The surface temperature and pressure is too high.


Does venus have a Venus Flytrap?

Venus has, as determined by satellite probes, a surface temperature of 800 degrees , much too hot to sustain life as we know it.


Can Venus' support life forms?

The surface conditions on Venus are thought to be too severe to support even simple lifeforms.
