Because there are these thick clouds that always surround Venus, so they need radars to see past the clouds.
Since the planet is completely covered by dense clouds the only ways to study its surface has been with spacecraft: landers which pass through the clouds to land on the surface (but due to the high temperature and corrosive sulfuric acid in the air fail rapidly) and orbiters using RADAR to look through the clouds to map the surface. A few early studies of Venus were done using Earth based RADARs, but the results were not very clear due to the distance.
Any of the visual organs of early man.Saturn has been known since man first looked up into the sky and saw bright spots of light moving across the sky.See related question for more information.
Scientists used radar mapping techniques, particularly from missions like NASA's Magellan spacecraft, to peer beneath Venus's thick cloud cover. By emitting radar waves and analyzing the returned signals, they were able to create detailed topographic maps of the planet's surface. This method allowed them to study geological features, such as mountains and valleys, despite the dense atmosphere that obscured direct observation.
Some of the satellites that have been sent to Venus include Magellan in 1989, Venus Express in 2005, and Akatsuki in 2010. These missions were launched to study Venus' atmosphere, surface, and geology.
The ESA satellite "Venus Express" was launched on November 9, 2005 and began orbiting Venus on April 11, 2006.

Geologists study the Earths surface
"Venus is hidden by an atmosphere so thick that even without the clouds, the surface would not be visible. Radio waves can penetrate this barrier, and have allowed us to finally see the surface. Microwave emissions gave early clues about conditions on the surface, and radar maps have revealed the topography and geology of the planet..."

in venus
to study venus...lol!
You have to study and study to become a scientist. you have to do experaments your self to see if you are a natural scientist.
