Why NASA won't send humans to Venus

Although Venus is easier to reach than Mars, scientists and space agencies around the world show little interest in exploring the planet. Why is it that they have so much enthusiasm in examining Mars but not our neighboring planet, Venus?

If the magic school bus can land in Venus, then so can NASA

[Nonamelol.]

This is like asking: why humans won’t send humans to the sun.

Fun fact (for anyone who disnt know) venus is mostly considered earths twin because during both planets early stages before life formed, venus was in the habitable zone like earth. But then Earth got hit and we got a moon, and a tilt that stabalized us. Venus got hit as well, it got a reversed rotation which is much slower. No fast rotation, no strong magnetic field, so Venus got roasted alive. If venus had not been hit we could have has a possible inhabited cosmic neighbor. Its amazing how two planets that were so alike in the beginning went down 2 very different paths.

Earth is the good twin
And Venus is the evil twin

I wonder why they won't send humans to Venus?

Ok that's enough reasons thnx

Doesn't sound so bad when you compare it to visiting my mother in law.

Me: I don't know, why can't NASA send humans to the oven?

Humans have this fascination about "landing" on things. I've read an article explaining how you could send a flying station like a sky city that would float in venus's upper atmosphere where conditions aren't as harsh and it's probably be less expensive and less risky than sending people on mars

[superiorsoldier]

You know, you don't have to actually land on Venus's ground surface in order to inhabit the planet. All you really have to do is put floating spacecraft on the surface of Venus's atmosphere in order to colonize it. They've actually discussed doing that.

Earth = Happy New year
Venus = Happy New Day

This question is the same as "why NASA won't send humans to Sun"

[SkepticalCaveman]

No need to go down to the surface, just build floating cities high up in the atmosphere the temperature is much lower there, but the gravity is very close to earth's. The only problem is to generate a magnetic field to protect against radiation, that should be possible by converting the plentiful amount of heat below to electricity/magnetism.

when I first saw this, I was like "obviously why would we send someone over there!?"

[seantheguy]

Aye while it may be nearly impossible NOW, it's not okay to say never. You never know for sure what'll occur in the future.

[Clay]

what if Venus used to be like Earth but the species that lived on it polluted the atmosphere too much and had a nuclear war. lmao

[Irapa]

2:12 Oh really!? Well never mind then, let’s go to Venus!

[dannyurocks]

You could fly there and stay in big air ships. And some time send probes down to the surface to explorer it or just measure stuff in the atmosphere. Would be less hassle then to go to the Mars. As airships have already been developed and its not such a big distance as Mars.
