Venera 9 went into orbit around Venus on October 20, 1975. It surveyed the surface from October 26th to December 25th of that year.
Some of the satellites that have visited Venus include NASA's Magellan, the Soviet Union's Venera series (such as Venera 7, 9, and 13), and the European Space Agency's Venus Express. These missions have provided valuable data on Venus's atmosphere, surface, and geology.
The robots that have explored Venus include the Soviet Venera program missions, such as Venera 7, Venera 9, and Venera 13. The most recent mission to Venus was the Akatsuki probe launched by the Japan Aerospace Exploration Agency in 2010.

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 series of space probes sent to Venus by the Soviet Union is called the Venera program.

The following spacecraft sucessfully flew to Venus (some did not accomplish their mission goals, or were only fly-bys, but did reach the vicinity of the planet): Sputnik 7 - Venera 1 - Mariner 1 - Sputnik 19 - Mariner 2 - Sputnik 20 - Sputnik 21 - Venera 1964A - Venera 1964B - Cosmos 27 - Zond 1 - Venera 2 - Venera 3, Venera 4 - Mariner 5 - Cosmos 167 - Venera 5 - Venera 6 - Venera 7 - Cosmos 359 - Venera 8 - Cosmos 482 - Mariner 10 - Venera 9 - Venera 10 - Pioneer Venus 1 - Pioneer Venus 2 - Venera 11 - Venera 12 - Venera 13 - Venera 14 - Venera 15 - Venera 16 - Vega 1 - Vega 2 - Galileo - Magellan -Cassini - Venus Express - MESSENGER - Planet-C (Venus Climate Orbiter) (See the related link below)
The Russians sent 10 probes there between 1967 (Venera 4) and 1983 (Venera 15).
