NASA Announces Two Missions To Explore Venus

NASA will launch two missions to Venus between 2028 and 2030 – for the first time in 30 years.

NASA said Wednesday that the missions – VERITAS and DAVINCI+ – will have budgets of around 500 million dollars each.

VERITAS will map Venus’ surface to discover how it developed so differently from Earth.

DAVINCI+ will measure the composition of the Venus’ dense atmosphere to understand how it evolved.
