COSMIC MESSAGE

This computer reconstruction of Venus's surface was created from radar data collected by the Magellan spacecraft. Magellan orbited Venus from 1990 to 1994, mapping the planet through its dense atmosphere. It revealed volcanic features like the large, circular domes, typically 25 kilometers across, shown here.
