Images of giant wave on Venus captured by Japanese probe

Pressure wave in planet’s atmosphere was one of the largest ever seen in the solar system, stretching over 10,000 kilometres

The Akatsuki probe captured images of the giant wave in the Venusian cloud tops where it became one of the most prominent features in the planet’s atmosphere for four days in December 2015.

Soviet aircraft/Venera on Venusian surface:


Too bad the atmospheric pressure on Venus is approximately 92-93 times that of Earth's surface due to the thick atmosphere of dense carbon dioxide that built up via its runaway greenhouse effect that makes it quite hot so the aircraft didn't stand a chance. That would squash any individual on its surface like a pancake. Unfortunately, it couldn't collect more topographic pictures of its surface.
