Atmospheric pressure at depth will ultimately destroy the Uranus probe’s metal. For comparison, standing on Earth, we experience 1 bar of pressure. The surface of Venus experiences 92 bars.on the proposed Uranus Orbiter and Probe, a flagship class mission to an Ice Giant planet and surrounding moons. Scientists met to present and discuss UOP conduct and payload, covering all concepts of the Uranus system, interior to magnetosphere.
