I was thinking the same thing, but, I would worry that the drones might not work well in that atmosphere. Very hot air filled with toxic gasses would definitely require better than average "weather" sealing. Looks like the atmosphere is made up of Hydrogen Sulphide and Chlorine, and would require getting awfully close to 0ph boiling water.
I'd hate to see what happened if the drone failed and you dropped a mix of plastic, metal, and a high-density lithium battery into it. I suspect it isn't worth the environmental risk.
- ridgeguy 9y agoReally good point. I hadn't thought about what volcanic-sourced water vapor would do to just about everything a drone is made of. Not pretty, I'm sure.
