The Idea
Our solution is...
For the material of the base, Titanium (Ti) has proven to be the most efficient metal. One key characteristic found is its boiling point. Additionally, solar panels will be used for collecting the energy by using the principle of photoelectric effect in which captures waves of light that will convert this energy into electrical energy.
The Probe
The probe (left picture) has three parts. The first part (top of picture) is the parachute container, and it will help the probe land. The second part (middle of picture) is the probe itself. It has a titanium shell with emergency solar cells attached. It also encapsulates scientific and communication equipment. The third and final part (bottom of picture) is the heat shield. It is coated in aluminum, and protects the probe from burning in Venus's atmosphere.
How It Works
Using a nuclear battery and the photoelectric effect, we have a lot of electricity. We have so much electricity that it is more than enough to last 60 days!
