Selected source excerpts (not the complete document).

Venus is the hottest planet in our solar system, with surface temperatures about 872 degrees Fahrenheit (467 Celsius). And atmospheric pressure at the surface squeezes with the same force as being more than 3,000 feet underwater on Earth (930 meters). The Soviet Union sent a series of probes to Venus between 1961 and 1984 as part of its Venera program (Venera is Russian for Venus). Ten probes made it to the surface, and a few functioned briefly after landing. The longest survivor lasted two hours; the shortest, 23 minutes. Photos they snapped before the landers cooked show a barren, dim, and rocky landscape, and a sky that is likely some shade of sulfur yellow.

While you’re waiting, don’t expect any seasonal relief from the unrelenting temperatures. On Earth, with its spin axis tilted by about 23 degrees, we experience summer when our part of the planet (our hemisphere) receives the Sun’s rays more directly — a result of that tilt. In winter, the tilt means the rays are less direct. No such luck on Venus: Its very slight tilt is only three degrees, which is too little to produce noticeable seasons.
