Did you know Venus is actually blue to the human eye? I don't think so.

Everything you know is wrong.

That's a lie. It is cream/yellowish

there must be something wrong with it

maybe the color enhacing just gives the atmosphere more clarity, but the blue comes from the ultraviolet filter

Can't you fucking read?

>> No.7391714

venus's atmosphere is made mostly of carbon dioxide, nitrogen dioxide, sulfuric acid and argon gas.

They're all colorless except for nitrogen dioxide which is brown-red. So the planet should look brownish in the visible spectrum.

>> No.7391716

>>7391714
it also has water vapor.

That doesn't mean that's how the human eye sees Venus' atmosphere. The photo shows what we would see if we could see ultraviolet light.

>> No.7391869

>>7391747
Correct.

The blue color of Earth is caused Rayleigh scattering of light through atmospheric nitrogen. This is why the upper atmosphere of Titan is also blue.

This is where it's from

http://solarsystem.nasa.gov/multimedia/display.cfm?Category=Planets&IM_ID=10083

this is one of the first close up views of Venus. I don't know why they decided to colorize it as blue instead of yellowish.

The pic in the OP reminds me of those old scifi stories where Venus was a jungle/swamp/ocean planet.

Too bad it's hot enough to melt lead on the surface.

Yes. Astronauts crash land on the surface and are driven mad by the constant rain.
