In a 28th April 2021 article (https://spectrum.ieee.org/semiconductors/materials/the-radio-we-could-send-to-hell) at the Institute of Electrical and Electronics
Engineers Spectrum Magazine web site, researchers Alan Mantooth,
Carl-Mikael Zetterling and Ana Rusu report on the challenges of
operating electronics on a lander on the surface of Venus where the
average temperature is 464 °C, the atmosphere is dense with highly
corrosive droplets of sulphuric acid, and the atmospheric pressure at
the surface is about 90 times that of Earth.
