The rejuvenated exploration of Venus remains a high priority within NASA, as evidenced by the selection of two Discovery class missions (DAVINCI and VERITAS) to be launched within the decade, and the support of the European Space Agency’s EnVision mission. All three missions represent a transformative advancement in the understanding of Earth’s enigmatic neighbor. In order to maximize the science return from these missions, and to facilitate the infusion of new technologies into potential future missions, NASA’s Glenn Research Center operates a unique facility, the Glenn Extreme Environment Rig (GEER), to simulate ambient conditions at Venus’ surface for long durations.
