Venera 7, launched in 1970 by the USSR, was the first spacecraft to transmit data from the surface of another planet. It endured the environment of Venus, characterised by searing temperatures & crushing atmospheric pressure. Though its transmission lasted only 23 minutes, Venera 7 marked a groundbreaking milestone in space exploration, proving humanity's ability to reach and study distant, hostile worlds. This mission paved the way for future Venus exploration, offering valuable insight into the planet’s atmosphere and surface.
