A View from Venus: Rift Valley

NASA APOD
COSMIC MESSAGE

This image, constructed from Soviet Venera lander color data and Magellan radar data, shows a rift valley on Venus. The valley, created by faulting in the planet's crust, stretches towards Gula Mons, a two-mile-high volcano. Venus's surface is hidden by thick clouds, so radar is essential for mapping its features.
