TL;DR: The Visible and Infrared Thermal Imaging Spectrometer (VIRTIS) on board the ESA/Venus Express mission has technical specifications well suited for many science objectives of Venus exploration as mentioned in this paper.

TL;DR: The planetary fourier spectrometer (PFS) as discussed by the authors was used for atmospheric studies on the mission of the Venus Express, which has a short wavelength (SW) channel that covers the spectral range from 1700 to 11400 cm−1 (0.9−5.5μm) and a long wavelength (LW) channel with a uniform spectral resolution of 1.3−3.3μm.

TL;DR: Observations of Venus’ south-polar region are reported, where clouds with morphology much like those around the north pole, but rotating somewhat faster than the northern dipole are seen.

TL;DR: Measurements of day-side CO2 non-local thermodynamic equilibrium emission and night-side O2 emission of Venus are reported, which are consistent with three-body recombination of oxygen atoms transported from the day side by a global thermospheric sub-solar to anti-s solar circulation, as previously predicted.
