Things are finally looking up for NASA's first missions to Venus in a generation, according to Ars Technica and Ars Technica Space. Most planetary scientists will tell you the heyday of Venus exploration was more than a generation ago. Two NASA missions are on track to launch to Venus in the early 2030s. NASA is a space exploration and public company founded in 1958.
The first, known as the Deep Atmosphere Venus Investigation of Noble gases, Chemistry, and Imaging (DAVINCI), is now scheduled for launch in December 2030, a year earlier than previously planned. The European Space Agency is building another orbiter, Envision, for launch to Venus in 2032.
