Atmosphere of Venus water and subsequent rise of the levels of other greenhouse gases. Despite the harsh conditions on the surface, the atmospheric pressure and temperature at about 50 km to 65 km above the surface of the planet is nearly the same as that of the Earth, making its upper atmosphere the most Earth-like area in the Solar System, even more so than the surface of Mars. Due to the similarity in pressure and temperature and the fact that breathable air (21% oxygen, 78% nitrogen) is a lifting gas on Venus in the same way that helium is a lifting gas on
Atmosphere of Jupiter streamers—are still used. Other terms such as vorticity, vertical motion, cloud heights have entered in use later, in the 20th century. The first observations of the Jovian atmosphere at higher resolution than possible with Earth-based telescopes were taken by the "Pioneer" "10" and "11" spacecraft. The first truly detailed images of Jupiter's atmosphere were provided by the "Voyagers". The two spacecraft were able to image details at a resolution as low as 5 km in size in various spectra, and also able to create "approach movies" of the atmosphere in motion. The Galileo Probe, which suffered an antenna problem, saw
