surface image of Venus

I know the current image shows Venus as it actually looks like, but it is blurry and is low quality. The previous one, although possibly misleading, was much better looking. I would change it back Tetra quark 14:31, 25 January 2015 (UTC)

The HAVOC proposal

Should the article mention NASA's HAVOC proposal (High Altitude Venus Operational Concept)? A summary by NASA as well as a video can be viewed at http://sacd.larc.nasa.gov/branches/space-mission-analysis-branch-smab/smab-projects/havoc/

I don't think a speculative mission belongs in the main Venus article. IMO, the perfect place for it is in this table. A2soup (talk) 06:23, 19 February 2015 (UTC)

Venus twin to earth

Venus which is near to the earth, and is not a suitable place to get settled due to high pressure and temperature according to recent research. Some notices about this planet can be studied from this website: . --MansourJE (talk) 17:17, 25 February 2015 (UTC)

Actually, up in its atmosphere the conditions are relatively benign. The website you point to actually hints to that. --JorisvS (talk) 17:24, 25 February 2015 (UTC)

Formation of Venus

There is a lot of information on Venus but no subtitle which outlines how this object formed. As well, how exactly would an object, so called Earth's twin, have such different features such as no strong global magnetic field, active plate tectonics, water oceans or life? Seems to me we are studying an object which is NOT Earth's twin.Wavyinfinity (talk) 18:14, 19 March 2015 (UTC)

In culture - Change this title to - In culture and religious thought

Add the following second paragraph to this section (paragraph will sit right above the Etymology section).

A book published by Christian thinkers in 2014 titled Venus: Don't Go There - What Science and Religion Reveal about Life after Death presents the planet Venus as an appropriate biblical model for where condemned souls go after the Day of Judgment. The text argues that heaven, hell, and the lake of fire exist in material form within space and time and are not just abstract ideas. </ref> BlueInk Book Review Services </ref> — Preceding unsigned comment added by Michaeltsantini (talk • contribs) 21:10, 23 March 2015 (UTC)
