The mission failed as when they reached to Venus, the Magellan suffered with communication, shutting down for a few hours as a result of the extreme atmospheric pressure and high surface temperature that reached 475 degrees. So, they decided to send the Magellan back to Earth where it burned in the atmosphere.

• True, the mission did indeed fail.

• False, the mission failed for a while but continued.

• False, the mission didn't happen.

• 243 days

• 250 days

Why is erosion on Venus not common?

• Because there isn't presence of water + high temperatures.

• Because there isn't much surface area.

• Because there's a lot of surface area.

• Because there is a lot of water + low temperatures.

What's the process of crustal shortening?

• It's the process of when the information in a strand of DNA is copied into a new molecule of messenger RNA (mRNA).

• It's the process of molecules gathering to stabilize when liquid starts to cool and harden.

• It's the process of plateau formation, it thrusts one block or slice of crust over another or folding layers of rock.

• It's the process of when two mountains collide with each other.

Why does Venus have thick clouds?

• Because the atmosphere is filled with oxygen.

• Because Venus has a lot of bodies of water so it makes it rain often causing thick clouds.

• Because the atmosphere is filled with CO2.
