Aerospace firms Northrop Grumman and L'Garde have been working on a spacecraft to explore Venus. The Venus Atmospheric Maneuverable Platform concept vehicle will be very easy to execute because the scientists and engineers have the technology already to produce this vehicle. The VAMP would run on solar panels and wind patterns from Venus. Aerospace firms Northrop Grumman and L'Garde say the vehicle would rise during the day and take areal observations and then land during nighttime. The VAMP would circumnavigate Venus every six days due to the wind patterns. The vehicle would use buoyant gas to land and position itself on Venus. This vehicle would be extremely light and only be able to carry 44 lbs of scientific gear, still it is a small price to pay for a greater look into Venus's hot and mysterious atmosphere.
