The Need for Ground-Based Observations of Venus
Ground-based observations of Venus support NASA’s goals: they complement spacecraft data, raise new questions and help direct designs of new mission proposals. We review ground-based observations of Venus in the context of spacecraft results and advocate for new lab work, AO systems for extended objects and mid-IR (~10 μm) cameras to image Venus.
