File:DAVINCI+ four frames.png

English: Four frames showing an artist's rendition of DAVINCI+ in orbit around Venus and descending through its atmosphere. DAVINCI+ uses observations from both above and within the planetary atmosphere to answer major questions about how Venus was formed, has evolved, and possibly lost its habitability (and past surface oceans). Its “natural vertical mobility” extends from the top of the atmosphere, through the clouds, and then throughout the deep atmosphere to just above the surface, where imaging of mountain landscapes in 3D will be undertaken together with detailed chemistry.
