At the surface:

1) The temperature can reach up 450°C

2) There is no oxygen.

3) The pressure is ninety times as great as on Earth.

== == While the temperature and pressure on the surface are far just too great for colonization, there is an area 50km above the surface where the temperature and pressure are Earth-like, the winds circle the planet in 100-hour "days", and the gravity is just less than earth-like. Because the gases there are heavier than Earth's atmosphere, there is the possibility of "floating cities" kept in place and following the prevailing winds much like present day hot air balloons.

Your bubble wouldn't need to be incredibly strong, but it would need to be resistant to sulfuric acid. And you would need oxygen and food starting with materials shipped form Earth. In return, you could use abundant solar energy and sulfuric acid as resources for your own industries.

Where does Venus the Roman goddess live?

The Romans meant she lived in her temples.


Could people live on Mars for one day?

Yes, people could live on Mars for a day with the help of specialized space suits and technology to survive the harsh conditions, such as low temperatures, thin atmosphere, and radiation exposure. However, long-term colonization would require significant infrastructure and resources to support human life.


Do aliens live on Venus'?

There is currently no evidence to support the existence of aliens living on Venus. The extreme temperatures, acidic clouds, and lack of surface water make it inhospitable for known forms of life. Scientific exploration of Venus has not yielded any signs of extraterrestrial life.


Can people live in Jupiter?

No, it is not possible for people to live on Jupiter. Jupiter is a gas giant with extreme atmospheric conditions, including high levels of radiation, strong winds, and no solid surface to stand on. Additionally, the planet's intense gravity would make it impossible for humans to survive there.


What are the planets that live in space?

Planets do not live. They are inorganic material. The planets that exist in our solar system from closest to the sun to the furthest are... Mercury, Venus, Earth, Mars, Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, and Neptune. Beyond Neptune there are many planetoids including Pluto (which used to be considered a planet) We have discovered many other planets orbiting other stars, but I don't know all the names that have been given to them.
