There is a habitable zone in the atmosphere.
- pavel_lishin 1y agoThe word "habitable" in that sentence should be surrounded by very, very large quotes. There is a zone with Earth-like temperature and pressure, but the atmosphere is still poisonous & corrosive, I think. It's someplace we could probably put a human settlement, but it wouldn't be easy and would probably be as fun to maintain as the ISS.
- sulam 1y agoWay less fun than the ISS, which is like stepping outside on a cold day in comparison. We will have colonies on the moon, Mars, and all the major moons of Jupiter before people are living in the clouds on Venus.
- 77pt77 1y agoYou won't even have colonies underwater, let alone there.
