I believe an airship would have higher chances of survival. If the surface has been that hot for thousands/millions of years, why would the underground be different? Unless you go really deep (hundreds of KM?), which is impossible.
- m4rtink 5y agoIIRC some designs have an airship with probe on a long cable. The airship stays in the relatively cool upper layers of the atmosphere and periodically lowers the probe to study the surface for a short while. That way you can cool the probe down every time you reel it in instead of making it withstand the hellish temperatures for extended amounts of time.
