We bounced a radio signal off Venus' surface! On 17+18 Oct the Dwingeloo transmitted and Astropeiler Stockert received the echoes, 42 million km each way. We decoded a 10-character message from the echo. And we're not finished yet: more echos on 24+25 Oct. camras.nl/en/blog/2026/earth…
Venus echo spectrum, Dwingeloo → Stockert. 2026-10-18, 1023, 270 seconds. A 5.6 sigma peak in the center shows a successful detection.
