A stunning claim by a former Soviet spy has stirred new intrigue: that the Soviet Union discovered pyramid-like structures on Venus during secret missions in the Space Race era. While it may sound far-fetched, some aspects of this story aren’t entirely beyond scientific consideration.
Venus remains one of the least understood planets in our solar system. Its thick, acidic clouds obscure direct observation, and its surface pressure—over 90 times that of Earth—makes exploration incredibly difficult. However, the Soviet Venera missions between 1961 and 1984 did land several probes, with Venera 9 and 13 capturing the only surface images ever taken directly from Venus. Some of these low-resolution images show angular, symmetrical formations that have led to speculation, including among scientists like Dr. Leonid Ksanfomaliti of the Russian Academy of Sciences, who once controversially suggested the presence of “possible life forms” in the images.
While no mainstream scientific consensus supports the pyramid claim, planetary scientists do recognize that Venus’s geological processes—like massive volcanic upheavals and crustal folding—can create oddly symmetrical structures. Combined with erosion by superheated winds, these formations can resemble artificial shapes.

Given how little we know about Venus—less than we do about Mars or even some moons—scientists are now calling for renewed exploration. NASA’s upcoming VERITAS and ESA’s EnVision missions aim to map the planet in high resolution, which could finally reveal whether some of Venus’s mysteries are natural—or something more.

NASA Just Found Declassified Photos of Venus By The Soviet Union. Real Images!
Recent revelations have shocked the scientific community: NASA has uncovered declassified photos of Venus taken by the Soviet Union!
These images, long hidden from the public eye, reveal a planet with conditions more extreme than we ever imagined. Venus, with its hellish surface temperatures nearing 465°C, is dotted with towering mountains and active volcanoes that stretch towards ominous clouds of sulphuric acid.
“The atmosphere is crushing, exerting pressure equivalent to being 1,500 meters underwater on Earth. Fast-moving winds sweep through the murky yellow sky, adding to the planet’s otherworldly mystique.”
The Discovery!
But what did the Soviets really find on Venus?
