Abstract:

In December 2015, Japan’s Akatsuki spacecraft made history with a second attempt to enter Venus Orbit. Imaging cameras for reflected and emitted infrared light will observe Venusian weather to answer remaining questions about its unique atmosphere.

Since 1962, Venus has been investigated by numerous fly-bys, orbiters, descent probes and balloons. Yet, its thick, global cloud cover of sulfuric acid droplets, shrouds many remaining mysteries. Although formed at approximately the same time as Earth and Mars, its evolution has been dramatically different.

Many Venus mysteries remain, including – Why does Venus rotate more slowly and backwards as compared to other planets in our solar system? When did surface warming begin? Does Venus have active volcanoes? Did Venus ever harbour any lifeforms? What substances account for the cloud cover contrasts? Why does the atmosphere super rotate? Akatsuki hopes to reveal the answer to the last one at least!
