Only a few probes have been able to survive on the surface for very short periods in the past and have sent data. The atmosphere is also far from being fully explored. It could even be that building blocks of life can be found in more moderate layers of the planet's atmosphere. It can therefore be assumed that the planet Venus will increasingly become a focus of exploration. One way to collect significantly more data in situ is to build and operate an atmospheric research station over an extended period of time. This could carry out measurements at different positions and at different times and thus significantly expand our knowledge of the planet. In this work, the design of a Venus Research Station floating within the Venusian atmosphere is presented, which is complemented by the design of deployable atmospheric Scouts. The design of these components is done on a conceptual basis.}, subject = {Venus}, language = {en} }
