Are there any images of the surface of Venus?

Only 4 spacecraft have ever returned images from Venus’ surface. The world next door doesn’t make it easy, with searing heat and crushing pressure that quickly destroy any lander. In 1975 and 1982, 4 of the Soviet Union’s Venera probes captured our only images of Venus’ surface.

Can humans walk on Mercury?

Mercury has a density (g/cm^3) of 13.5 and the human body (65-80\% water) of about 1.0. There is very little friction on a surface of liquid mercury, so standing and much less walking would be a challenge.

What is the appearance of the Earth?
