The Interior of Venus Print
by solarviewsThis picture shows a cutaway view of the possible internal structure of Venus.
This picture shows a cutaway view of the possible internal
structure of Venus. The image was created from Mariner 10
images used for the outer atmospheric layer. The surface
was taken from Magellan radar images. The interior
characteristics of Venus are inferred from gravity field
and magnetic field measurements by Magellan and prior
spacecraft. The crust is shown as adark red, the mantle as
a lighter orange-red, and the core yellow.
<p>
What is known about the Venusian interior comes primarily from
the Venera, Pioneer Venus and Magellan spacecraft. Before these
explorers, scientists thought that Venus would have
tectonic processes similar to that of Earth's mantle convection.
Venus and Earth are both similar in size and presumable the
same composition. However, Venus showed no sign of plate tectonism,
and appears to have a single plate which makes it very different
from Earth.
