Venus
Revision as of 17:33, 14 October 2008 by 81.202.72.241 (talk)
Venus is the second planet from the Sun. It has no natural satellites.
At the surface of Venus, the atmospheric pressure is 9.2MPa, over 90 atmospheres. This is substantially greater than the back-pressure which standard rocket motors are able to generate; a Delta-glider landed on Venus will not be able to take off (at least if the complex flight model is in use).
