The paper outlines the evolution of the Pioneer Venus program from the initial meeting of a consortium of scientists to study the feasibility of a simple entry probe to Venus, through the Planetary Explorer missions, to the Orbiter Mission proposals. Major recommendations of the 1970 National Academy of Sciences study on Venus exploration planning and of the 1972 Pioneer Venus Science Steering Group report are mentioned.
