@mt @georgetakei I'm not sure if you're joking, but the atmosphere of Venus:
- is ~800°F
- moves at about 220 mph
- has clouds of incredibly corrosive sulfuric acid

So sure, getting to orbit might be easier than getting to the deep sea, but going to Venus is signing up to be submerged in fast-spinning, boiling Draino (and that's an understatement).
