[Belated OTD] October 20, 1975. The Soviet Venera 9 lander plops down on an inclined hillside in Beta Regio of Venus and transmits this panorama (interspersed with telemetry data), becoming the first craft to survive a Venus landing and to transmit an image from a surface of another planet http://mentallandscape.com/c_venera09.jpg 8 comments 25/10/2020 space

The Soviets sent more than a dozen spacecraft to Venus over the course of 30 years as part of their Venera Program. Some missions failed, but many succeeded: Venera 3 was the first spacecraft to crash into another planet, but Venera 9 captured the first images from the surface of another planet. https://astronomy.com/news/2020/08/interplanetary-probes-from-behind-the-iron-curtain-the-soviet-venera-program 501 comments 27/8/2020 space

This is the first image taken on a planet other than Earth. It was taken on October 22, 1975 by Venera 9, a Soviet unmanned space mission to Venus.The orbiter was the first spacecraft to orbit Venus. The lander lasted 53 minutes before it was destroyed by Venus's harsh environment https://blog.sciencemuseum.org.uk/wp-content/uploads/2014/08/first_venus1.jpg 10 comments 9/2/2017 space
