Scientific paper

Magellan data for Venus reveal a planet with a great diversity of volcanic and tectonic landforms, with good evidence of continuing volcanism and tectonism. Weathering, mass wasting and wind erosion and deposition have modified the surface only to the extent of a few meters, thereby preserving an excellent record of tectonic and volcanic processes on a terrestrial-size planet. All cycle 1 mosaics, radiometry, and altimeter data will be made available through the Planetary Data System and the National Space Science Data Center.
