- Image:Venera14Surface.jpg (hard linked because it is a non-free image) This is a digitally remastered image of the Venusian surface, showing a wide surrounding view
Have you seen the original Venera 14 images. They're pretty weak compared to this. See some if you want to by clicking on these links. The rarity of quality imagery of the Venusian surface has to be taken into account. So, there was Magellan but it only showed the surface with its radar. This is a high quality image that I stared at for a long time and thought, wow, so that's what the surface of Venus looks like.
This photo is on the following pages:Venus, Venera 14, Geology of Venus.
