Arrival of the Pioneer Venus spacecraft at Venus

The Pioneer Venus project was part of the Pioneer program consisting of two spacecraft, the Pioneer Venus Orbiter and the Pioneer Venus Multiprobe, launched to Venus in 1978.[1] The program was managed by NASA's Ames Research Center.

The Pioneer Venus Orbiter entered orbit around Venus on December 4, 1978, and performed observations to characterize the atmosphere and surface of Venus.[2] It continued to transmit data until October 1992.[1][3]

The Pioneer Venus Multiprobe deployed four small probes into the Venusian atmosphere on December 9, 1978.[1][3] All four probes transmitted data throughout their descent to the surface.[4] One probe survived the landing and transmitted data from the surface for over an hour.
