Memorable dates of 1967.

The Venera-4 automatic station was launched on June 12, 1967 from the Baikonur Cosmodrome by a Molniya-M launch vehicle with an upper stage and placed into the intermediate reference orbit of an artificial Earth satellite.

From there, with the help of the upper stage engine, the device was transferred to the flight path to Venus. 128 days after launch, on October 18, 1967, the Venera 4 station approached the planet. The descent module separated before the automatic station entered the atmosphere of Venus. The spacecraft burned up in the dense layers of the atmosphere, and the descent module by parachute smoothly descended into the dense layers of the atmosphere. Along with the deployment of the main parachute, the antennas of the radio altimeter and transmitter opened, the scientific instruments turned on, and the transmission began scientific information to the ground. The lander made direct measurements of temperature, density, pressure and chemical composition atmosphere of the planet during descent. The first interplanetary radio communication session in human history lasted 93 minutes. The last parameters of the atmosphere of Venus transmitted to them corresponded to an altitude of 28 kilometers. The pressure and density were measured by the device until the instruments went off scale, since the upper limit of the pressure gauge was 7.3 atmospheres. Temperature measurements were carried out during the entire descent of the device by parachute until the connection was lost.

As a result of the Venera-4 flight, it was established that carbon dioxide is the main component of the atmosphere of Venus (about 90%), and it contains little oxygen and water vapor. Scientific instruments of the Venera-4 station orbiter showed the absence of radiation belts on Venus, and the planet’s magnetic field turned out to be 3000 times weaker magnetic field Earth. In addition, using a UV tracer from the Sun, Venus' hydrogen corona was discovered, containing about 1,000 times less hydrogen than Earth's upper atmosphere. Atomic oxygen was not detected by the indicator.

The flight program of the Venera-4 station was completed in full.

The Soviet Union has a much larger interplanetary exploration program. In this area the Russians are far ahead of us. (William PICKERING, Director of the Interplanetary Research Laboratory (Pasadena, USA))

A new outstanding victory of Soviet science and technology, timed to coincide with the 50th anniversary of the October Revolution, can safely be considered one of the outstanding achievements of mankind. In the history of the exploration of Venus and all solar system a new glorious page has been opened. (Audouin DOLFUS, professor (Paris))
