Visiting Maxwell Montes - Tallest Mountain On Venus

- Maxwell Montes is the tallest mountain on Venus, standing at 11 kilometers above the mean radius of Venus. In this video, I take a look at some interesting facts regarding this mountain and then see as to what visiting it would be like.
Intro, outro, and many other clips in the video were made with Space Engine.

FF: on Venutian mountains above 2600m (8500ft) it snows metal (galena & bismuthinite)
@Koichó documentary
Very interesting.
A lander would have to be like a deep-sea submarine in a pizza oven. Insane that the Soviet probes lasted as long as they did.
Yess only rover can work 3o min and melted
Thank you! This is the kind of videos I like - not only educating about the planet, but actually showing what it would actually be and feel like to be there yourself. Always looking forward for these.
Extremely interesting! Thank you very much for your effort!
I just became a patron on your Patreon. Thank you for getting me interested in the topic of astronomy, as it has led me to aiming for things I never thought I'd aim for earlier in my life.
Keep up the fantastic work, and I hope you are able to make many more videos in the future.
Thank you very much. I wish you luck in your endeavors.
@@Drekslerr Thank you, too. I hope I can leave a positive impact on the scientific side of humanity.
You have an uncanny ability to post videos the days that I randomly think of your channel. Thanks for the content as always!
Drexler, your narratives take me there. Don't stop doing what you do.
You have an amazing ability to make something, which for most people is esoteric, really interesting. It would be nice to walk up Maxwell Montes, but it rains sulphuric acid, so I will think twice about that. Also I understand that, due to its more elastic crust, owing to its very high temperature, there are no subduction zones as on Earth, hence the range of relief on Venus is less. A fascinating world, but also in many ways the most hostile to visit in our solar system. Also Earth trapped its carbon dioxide as carbonate due to its oceans. Venus lost its oceans fairly early on so it remains in its atmosphere. Shame. The world would be so different if that had no happened.
Well spoken, sir
Why is it a shame? Venus doesn't care
Imagine how different our own history could have been if that first probe sent to Venus in 1970 had revealed another habitable planet, our own twin. Interesting to think about.
@@samlosco8441 Soviets would've colonized it lmao
Maybe oceans been there before 4 milions ago
Another great video. Thanks man.
It’s been awhile dark astral welcome back and happy Sunday
Props to Maxwell Montes for not turning into slag and ash after all this time.
Your videos are the best!!!
I missed you dude!!
can you make more videos about cloud cities
Great narration!
If we ever terraform Venus, this might be one of the first places to build a colony on because it would be the first place to reach habitable temperature and pressure before the rest of Venus does. To terraform Venus there would be a few main challenges: lower the temperature, get rid of all the CO2 gas, introduce water and get rid of the sulphuric acid in the atmosphere. To cool down the planet, a solution might be to install some kind of giant flowing sunlight filter in space that would shield the entire planet and filter out so much sunlight that Venus gets the same amount of sunlight as earth.
To get rid of all the CO2 and also introduce water, an interesting solution would be to bring hydrogen from Jupiter or Saturn there and ignite it in a Bosch reaction (this would also need iron), which would remove CO2 and produce graphite and water which would rain down on Venus. Although this might actually produce too much water where it would cover a too large part of the surface with water, so we would also need other methods to remove the atmosphere. I wonder if we could build some kind of giant "blimp" spaceship that would have a pipe reaching from space into Venus' atmosphere and could suck out atmosphere physically like a giant vacuum cleaner, and bring it somewhere else in the solar system.
I haven't found any ideas on how to remove the sulphuric acid though.
Venus already has some nitrogen in the atmosphere so we wouldn't need to produce that.
And to get oxygen, we would need to also to electrolysis with some of the water forming from the Bosch reaction. This would split up the water into oxygen and hydrogen, and the hydrgoen from this reaction we could use again for more Bosch reactions until almost all of the CO2 has been turned into graphite, water and oxygen.
This is incredible ✨
Another video by Dreksler is a grand day indeed.
Great video!
How realistic is a lander probe that quickly grabs a few geology samples and leaves venus rapidly back into space for earth, a tough technology challenge?
awesome
He's back fellas
What a great channel
Some people suggest that Venus might actually be more ideal to colonize than Mars. Some advantages Venus has over Mars is the gravity is more closer to Earth, has an atmosphere, and also more closer to Earth than Mars.
Are you forgetting the insane heat?
@@Shvetsario on the surface, however in the upper atmosphere, they say that the temperatures are more closer to that of Earth.
Closer doesn't mean better. The closer you orbit to an object, the faster you have to orbit. Venus might be even harder to reacher.
Cool
when we land on Venus again, I hope NASA chooses a high altitude landing spot; perhaps fewer lava flows there will have avoided destroying any evidence of past biology.
First to my most favorite astronomer youtuber , also can you make a video about Kepler 442b
Does it add value in some way to say you're first???
@@ajaxmichael idk man 🤷♂️
@@ajaxmichael it's just a fun thing
@@patrickblackwell777 Fun for who? I see nobody ever laugh about it…
@@ajaxmichael some people seem to be bothered by it. Others enjoy and post it when given the chance. The rest are impartial. To each their own.
can you make videos about terraforming planets and moons?
it is perfect to begin a base at the very top of it.
Is it possible to send a rover or lander there since it's colder and less pressurized than the average surface? So, it could last longer?
As the video says, yes, it's possible.
It is possible but it starts getting hairy when you think about its feasibility. Unfortunately many electronic circuit boards contain lead and also tin, copper, and antimony. Tin and antimony have low melting points compared to even the chilly 716 F of Skadi Mons. Tin melts at about 441 F. You would need to keep the electronics below that, at least, and I'm sure I'm missing something. Many people have reballed motherboard SMDs like GPU chips many times using a conventional oven, many of which can reach such temperatures. It is very difficult to get standard electronics to operate stable at anywhere near temperatures that high. Stability is a whole other ball game beyond elementary concerns. It will also be very expensive and there will be a galaxy of other concerns including shielding, sensors, communications, mobility, and durability. I would like to see this happen, and if it does, it will be one of the greatest achievements of humanity.
Partially's right. There is so much work and resources and tech involved in keeping a rover alive on Venus that no space faring nation would try to justify the cost of it.
Wow
did you make the guide to saturns moons video?
❤❤❤❤❤❤
Intriguing title
Can we find a way to terraform the Venus?
❤️
Big mt even of peak maxweel mt is 400 c so warm there no life🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
So cool! My last name is Montes lol
Your username doesn’t say so
@@Bombersman It sure doesn't
The video thumbnail looks similar to Boosaule Montes on Io in a sense.
Narrater's voice is good
The thick atmosphere would make any visibility shimmery and blurry.
I wish I could go to venus and check the place out😎
Impossible
With Venus’s crushing pressure hard to believe it has any mountains.
What about Mars' highest point, Mons Olympus?
Ishtar is the Babylonian or Persian name for Venus?
So what caused this massive volcanic event on Venus that almost completely resurfaced it ?
hello :D
Hi fellow srb
Also the eart is tick. Ah come on Dreks, just kidding pal
Is Maxwell Mountains , more coulder
Hi
Dark planet you cant see more then 1 km
Will humans ever be able to land on this harsh environment? It's as if Venus is keeping us away.
I don’t think it would be plausible.
land no, but there are theorys of having sky city's
Humans could visit the upper atmosphere, but the probably not the surface
Sorry fake 👎
Life is on Venus, ie valiant Thor.
