Impressive.

May be awhile before we return to Venus. Perhaps we need a ground based forum for the time being.

I have not seen the resolution for this image, but check out this page:

http://www.naic.edu/~pradar/radarpage.html

for some images from 1999 - 2001 including a small one at 1.2 km/pixel.

Also you can poke around here... some at least are 50 pixels/degree or about 2 km.
