Artist's impression of Venus Express orbiting Venus.

The #VenusExpress spacecraft was an adapted version of our Mars Express and used many of the spare instruments developed for that mission as well as for our Rosetta mission.

Its seven scientific instruments enabled scientists to dig into the secrets of the Venusian atmosphere.

This is a picture of Venus’s atmosphere, taken by the Venus Monitoring Camera (VMC) during Venus Express orbit number 459 on 24 July 2007. The view shows the southern hemisphere of the planet and the dynamic changes in Venus’s light and dark clouds. These clouds are visible only at ultraviolet wavelengths and are remarkably changeable.

#OTD 24 July 2007, @esa.int's #VenusExpress captured this pic of Earth's sister planet Venus 🧪
