NASA Prepares Floating City in the Clouds of Venus

                                                                                                                                                                                                     WASHINGTON - Exploration to Planet Venus was considered unacceptable because the climate there is otherwise unfriendly. However, NASA believes building a floating city is the answer.

As quoted from Cnet, Tuesday (12/23/2014), a number of institutions that explore the solar system, including NASA, revealed that in addition to Mars is no other candidate that can best planet to build a civilization or city, namely Venus.

Venus itself is claimed to have close proximity to the earth, ie, 36 to 26 million kilometers. In contrast to Mars has reached a distance of 56 to 401 million kilometers is regarded as Earth's nearest neighbor.

It is also expressed in proportion to the size of the radius of the Earth at a distance of 6,052 kilometers and estimates of density and chemical composition of the same.

However, many things that are not allowed to be the planet Venus that can be visited. Because previously, a probe has been sent to triangulate the surface of the planet. Unfortunately, only lasted two hours.

Atmospheric pressure reaches 29 times larger than Earth and the temperature reaches 462 degrees Celsius (863 degrees Fahrenheit) cause the probe can not survive. The temperature estimated to be equivalent to the temperature of the volcanic activity on the Earth's most extreme comprised of mostly carbon dioxide and a small amount of nitrogen and a layer of clouds composed of sulfuric acid.

Through some analysis and prediction of strong, NASA still claim that Venus is a planet candidates that could be built for a new human civilization. Only, the construction of the city should be made to float on the surface of the planet.
