In

of the Venusian Surface. Come see an exciting geological tour across
the surface of Venus presented in 40 spectacular slides of radar images
returned by the Magellan spacecraft. Special topics include impact
craters, mountains, tessera terrain, coronea, arachnoids, volcanoes, channels,
and dunes.
