I'm pretty sure that blasting off of the surface of Venus with a rocket wouldn't work. Too much drag at low altitudes. You'd probably need to fly or float your way up to a higher altitude where the air is thinner before you ignited your rockets. But that's the least of this video's technical improbabilities.
Closer to 900F on the surface. I can't imagine any experiment that a human would do on Venus that an unmanned lander could not do better under those conditions. I am sure this will happen eventually, but not until the technology is so great that it would be safe. And that would seem to be a very long time from now....
@Blowtorchvs No, you're wrong. Chuck Norris WOULD need to wear a spacesuit on Venus. The spacesuit would be necessary to protect Venus from Chuck Norris.
We could prolly land on Venus but the space ship would take an ass kicking from the corrosive acid clouds but the intense pressure and the heat is not meant for man :D
CO2 at 90 atmospheres pressure and 900 degrees F. Supercritical CO2 is used for dry cleaning, because it dissolves grease. You wouldn't want to have a pressure suit failure, it would be like being dumped into a deep-fat frier.
Slight correction, the penetrometer on Venera-14 didn't hit the camera cap, just the arm landed on it, the probe actually entered the soil and returned a reading. (See their paper in Cosmic Research, 1983).
Fictional it might be for the moment, but history has proven good things eventually get accomplished, simply because it is a necessity for humans.

Would rather see a probe take pictures as it approaches Uranus.

The gravity of Venus is almost the same as Earth's. How can such a small rocket break free of its gravity?

Spacesuit could withstand the pressure and heat on the venus surface, Unbelieveable.

wouldn't it be amazing if we could actually land on venus?
