== 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?

Under current and future missions please replace the date "2014" with "2016" when referring to the ESA's BepiColombo mission as 2014 is incorrect with 2016 being the projected launch year. — Preceding unsigned comment added by IndicaXSS (talkcontribs) 08:40, 19 August 2014 (UTC) Reference: http://sci.esa.int/bepicolombo/47346-fact-sheet/ — Preceding unsigned comment added by 173.17.159.76 (talk) 10:20, 4 January 2015 (UTC)

Main image

Shouldn't the main image represent what the planet actually looks like, instead of a false-colour radar image without clouds? Serendious 22:03, 15 October 2014 (UTC)

Perhaps. Tetra quark (talk) 03:00, 19 December 2014 (UTC)
Agreed. I'd like to see it switched back, and plan to do so in the next couple weeks if there are no objections. —Torchiest edits 20:45, 5 January 2015 (UTC)
@Torchiest: Now that the image has been changed, I started to miss the old one. The previous image is just a surface view from a radar, but it looks so much better :/ Tetra quark 14:32, 24 January 2015 (UTC)

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
