Scientific paper

Data on the atmosphere and soil of the planet Venus received from the aerostatic probe and landing module delivered by the Vega-2 space station are discussed. It is noted that earlier studies of surface rocks on Venus showed that they are intermediate between basalts and granites with respect to content of natural radio-active elements; their feature differ depending on location, however. Quick analysis of the sample taken in the Rusalki plain area indicated that it was soft soil with a compressive strength similar to that of loose andesite-basalt soils on Earth.
