Venus was once thought to be similar in Earth conditions and is about the same size. But during its 6.6 billion-year history, greenhouse gases are taking their toll on the boiling hot planet – which is now even hotter than Mercury, the closest planet to the Sun.
Temperatures on Venus are over 460 degrees Celsius due to volcanic activity and a thick, heavy atmosphere filled with carbon dioxide.
However, there is a part of the atmosphere above the toxic atmosphere that is full of carbon dioxide, oxygen and nitrogen just like us.
According to a scientist, the mind can ride on “floating dwellings” above Venus.
It will make sense for many reasons; First because Venus is once described as Earth’s twin, and second because it is much closer to Earth than Mars.
At its closest stage, Mars is 34.6 million miles away from Earth, while Venus on the other hand may be only 23.7 million miles away from our planet.
Venus: Speaking in a documentary called Death of a Planet, engineer and scientist at NASA’s Glenn Research Center, J. F. Free Landis said: “You can float in the atmosphere of Venus.
“And the dwellings can be very large. They can be kilometers in scale.
“You don’t even need hydrogen or helium. Because Venus’s atmosphere is mostly carbon dioxide, oxygen and nitrogen – normal breathing air – will evaporate.

“But you don’t necessarily need a pressure claim. Humans don’t like the idea of not being able to stand on solid ground.
“And the idea that you have to keep floating on this furnace is going to sell hard in some way!”
There are other issues concerning humanity on Venus.
Temperatures on Venus exceed 460 degrees Celsius, thanks to a toxic atmosphere that is full of carbon dioxide and results in extreme greenhouse gas emissions.
At that temperature, which is warmer than Mercury, the closest planet to the Sun, there is no liquid of any kind on Venus, which makes the possibility of life impossible by current scientific understanding.
