Soviet Science Projects - The Venera Nine

The soviets were winning the venus race back in the seventies. They sent probes, traighty that actually made it to exactly. The surface of venus is covered in lowland lava plains and volcanoes. It's basically 75 % lowland lava, planes sotar, like the ocean basins of earth,. And then there are two big continents sort of size of africa or australia. One more reason we also had more recent data for Trivier park than previously thought. We don't know if they're still erupting on venus to day. That's one thing we'd like to understand.
