What could those extraterrestrials from Venus possibly have in common with us? Surface pressure is similar to us being 1 km under the water. Atmosphere of CO2 and Sulphuric Acid. Temperatures over 400 degrees. Maybe they are made out of sulphur concrete which is resistant to sulphuric acid. "Sulphur concrete is a thermoplastic material that is produced by mixing modified molten sulphur with mineral fibers and aggregates at 132 to 141°C (270 to 285°F). The sulphur replaces portland cement and water as the binder in conventional concrete. The result is a very-high-yield material that has superior mechanical properties and is resistant to many chemicals including sulphuric acid." This would give them the ability to withstand compression pressures of 8000 psi. But one wonders at their ability to manipulate small and delicate objects such as circuit boards and transistors? I wonder what their grocery stores look like? Made out of lava and selling various volcanic rocks packaged in lava? I cannot imagine those cement head aliens having any respect for us water rats... Still (just in case), I must say I LOVE ...the Full Aspect of Nixies Zero Zero Two...with all my heart. en.wikipedia.org
