  • The atmospheric pressure at the surface of Venus is 90 times that at sea level here on Earth.
  • The gravity on Venus is actually smaller (8.87 m/s^2) than the Earths (9.78 m/s^2) at their own equators. This is a bit of a blessing as venus isn't crushing you with it's weight. It is however killing you with it's atmosphere. The earths surface pressure is 101.3 kPa, but venus is 9.3 MPa! This equates to very roughly ~92 times the pressure of earth. I wouldn't at all be surprised if this was a fatal value at all as it equates to a dive of about 920 metres.
  • I think I'll give it a miss. I already weigh far too much. LOL
  • Depend on how much she weighed LOL
  • a f**k load more!
  • Alot more but not as much as Jupiter :)
  • None, my boss does not work on Venus.
  • The gravity between Earth an Venus are relativley similar. The pressure (air pressure) on Earth is about 14.7 lbs per square inch at sea level. Venus's air pressure is 90x's that. (90 atmospheres times 14.7 pounds per square inch = 1323 pounds per square inch.) 90 times as much. A lot! conclusion: My people have gotten a lot taller here on Earth than we were on Venus. lol
  • You'd have to ask a woman, men are from Mars, remember?
  • Venus, the second planet from the Sun, is the hottest world in the solar system. Because of Venus' extremely thick atmosphere, the planet suffers from a runaway Greenhouse effect. Energy from the Sun passes through the atmosphere to the planet's surface, where it is absorbed and radiated at longer wavelengths as infrared. Venus' atmosphere traps these longer wavelengths so they cannot escape into space. The trapped energy builds up, so the planet grows hotter and hotter. With a surface temperature of almost 480 °C (900 °C), this place is hot enough to melt lead. Because of Venus' heavy atmosphere, the planet's surface pressure is very high. Pressure is defined as the weight of the atmosphere pressing down on you per unit area. On Earth, we don't notice the air pressure at all. The thick atmosphere on Venus would make it difficult to see objects very far away from you. Since carbon dioxide is poisonous to humans, you would not be able to breathe on Venus. Although the gravity on Venus is about the same as on Earth, the weight of the atmosphere would crush you. There are always thunderstorms somewhere on the planet, and lightning flashes about 25 times every second somewhere in Venus' atmosphere. The atmospheric pressure at the surface of Venus is about 90 times that of Earth's (90 atm). This atmosphere consists mainly of carbon dioxide, which is a gas that is not breathable. In addition, the clouds of Venus contain drops of sulfuric acid, a poisonous chemical. http://hypertextbook.com/facts/2000/NangMiu.shtml
