This is how Venus might appear from a position of the view below its lowest clouds. The view is of a giant impact crater that's about 5 miles rim to rim . The surface of Venus never gets any sun because of the thick clouds that cover Venus . Despite lack of sunlight the surface temperatures are an average 750 Fahrenheit ( about the temperature of a self cleaning oven) year round due to a runaway greenhouse effect that went into motion early in Venus' history. Not only is Venus extremely hot, the atmospheric pressure on the surface is 90 times that of earth's about the same as the water pressure at the depth of 3,000 feet in earth's ocean.
