In this new article, twenty amino acids were exposed to the concentrations of sulfuric acid usually found on Venus, at 98% and 81%, with the rest being water. Of these, 11 were unchanged after 4 ...

Based on physics models of how solar systems form, sulfuric acid should be fairly common on rocky planets like Venus, and it's definitely good at dissolving things. But surprisingly, some of the ...

This isn't as much of a problem on Venus, however. After all, the entire planet is covered with clouds. Bad news is, they're toxic. These clouds rain sulfuric acid that's so corrosive it would eat ...

and a swirling carbon dioxide atmosphere laced with sulfuric acid. A lot has changed since Venera’s brief working life 39 years ago but not the conditions on Venus. So when I heard that U.S ...

Venus hasn’t received nearly the same attention ... never mind the intense atmospheric pressure and sulfuric acid clouds. With this in mind, NASA has been experimenting with the concept of ...

Clouds on Venus form from sulfuric acid. Earth's atmosphere is 77 percent nitrogen, 21 percent oxygen, and 1 percent argon, with variable amounts of water vapor, and trace amounts of other gases.

we learned that those clouds in fact are not made out of water but out of concentrated sulfuric acid - battery acid — and that conditions on the surface of Venus are not at all Earth-like.

Venus is deemed the worst tourist destination ... It also experiences prolonged days of 243 Earth days and sulfuric acid rain, making it a place of perpetual danger and discomfort.
