In June of that year, the hitherto unknown OceanGate gained prominence around the world for the dramatic voyage of millionaires to the bottom of the sea in a submersible in search of a visit to the remains of the Titanic, at the bottom of the sea.
After the tragic outcome with the implosion that killed all the occupants, the company’s name appears once more with the proposal of its co-founder, Guillermo Söhnlein, who dreams of taking a thousand people to inhabit the soil of Venus in yet another dream that has a high chance to go wrong.
In an interview with Insider, Söhnlein considers his dream less complex and challenging than Musk’s, who wants to take 1 million people to Mars in the same period, disregarding the peculiarities of Venus.
Second planet in the Solar System, Venus is the hottest of all and has a rain of sulfuric acid and an atmosphere rich in carbon dioxide, in addition to atmospheric pressure 90 times greater than that of Earth, that is, an environment even more unhealthy than that of Earth. current witnessed by the Earth, including its worsening with global warming.
To respond and counteract the aforementioned problems, Söhnlein raises the possibility of inhabiting a specific atmospheric layer of the planet, betting on the construction of a resistant space station, establishing an air colony to house the thousand people mentioned by him.
For the time being, there are no further details regarding the far-fetched idea created by Söhnlein but it remains to be seen whether, following the fateful OceanGate accident, we will have anyone else available to risk their neck on an adventure with a high chance of going wrong.
So, would you risk going to Venus?
