Guillermo Söhnlein, a co-founder of OceanGate Expeditions
Guillermo Söhnlein, a co-founder of OceanGate Expeditions, declared his goal to send 1,000 humans on Venus, frequently referred to as Earth’s sister planet, by the year 2050. The announcement comes as the corporation is under investigation for the implosion of the “Titan” submersible, which was on an expedition to the Titanic shipwreck in the deep ocean and killed five people. The submersible vanished on June 18, and the US Coast Guards declared on June 22 that they had located the wreckage after verifying reports of oxygen running low.
The Co-founder explains how is it possible
Guillermo Söhnlein in an interview stated that, “I think it is less aspirational than putting a million people on the Martian surface by 2050.”
If you’re wondering how he’s envisioned these people staying on the planet, he cites studies that claim there is a patch of Venus’ atmosphere about 30 miles from the surface where people could theoretically survive due to lower temperatures and less extreme pressure. “This floating colony will be of 1,000 people capacity,” is what the OceanGate co-founder said, though he was unclear about how this will exactly happen.

OceanGate founder is planning to send humans on venus
Venus, according to NASA, has a thick, toxic atmosphere that contains a lot of carbon dioxide. It is constantly shrouded in thick, sulfuric acid-based clouds that are yellow in colour and trap heat, causing a runaway greenhouse effect. Venus is actually the hottest planet in our solar system, despite the fact that Mercury is closer to the Sun. Lead can melt at those temperatures, which can soar as high as 900 degrees Fahrenheit (475 degrees Celsius). The planet’s surface is rust-colored, covered with densely clustered mountains, and home to numerous enormous volcanoes.
Hence, living on Venue is not an easy job at all. It is the warmest planet in the solar system. So, the founder of the expedition company must be planning something huge when he says that he wishes to send humans there.
