@Delta1838, I don't care when it was written. It does not take advance science to understand that Venus is very close to the Sun, well away from the habitual zone. On top of that, we can tell by simply looking at the planet that it has a very thick atmosphere- therefore the combination of those two obvious observations would make the planet not an ocean, but like that of the mythical Hell. Dr. Asimov's research was sloppy at best.

his description of the universe is pretty damn precise.

@Mdriver1981 He apologyzes for that in the prologue of a most recent book.
Also, have in mind that Lucky Starr was written on the fifties.

@Mdriver1981 It's science fiction.

He was not very smart, in his book "Lucky Starr and the Oceans of Venus" he paints Venus as an ocean planet. He should have known that to be impossible due to it's closeness to the Sun.
