The sharpest image ever taken of Venus.

From the Japanese spacecraft Akatsuki.

The dark side shines in the infrared, which is how this photo was taken.

Well, this is the dark side as seen in infrared. If you were to stand at the same point in space and look at Venus the same way, you'd be dead.

But seriously, your view would just be generally darkness. But with some heat vision goggles you could see it?

Ah, missed the part about it being the dark side. Just saw the pretty image
