How long are the two landers expected to operate on the surface ?[edit]

How long are the two landers expected to operate on the surface ? - Rod57 (talk) 16:05, 30 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]

One or two hours would be a very long life. I was not able to find the target time, I think it depends on the electronics development at the time. The Russian Venera-D is focused and praying on an "extended" operation time of 3 hours. Rowan Forest (talk) 17:00, 30 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]

What technology to cope with temp and pressure[edit]

Since/if the instruments are based on those of Curiosity, presumably they must be kept cool. What temp will they operate to, and how will they be kept cool ? Passive/insulation for a short period, or some type of active cooling ? - Rod57 (talk) 08:17, 8 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]
