Storms of My Grandchildren: The Truth About The Coming Climate Catastrophe And Our Last Chance To Save Humanity, Dr. James Hansen More than a decade later, in 1978, I was still studying Venus. And by then I was responsible for an experiment that was on its way to that planet, aboard the Pioneer Venus mission. In the five years since I had proposed that experiment to measure the properties of the Venus clouds, I had been working about eighty hours per week. Anniek, whom I had met while I was on a postdoctoral fellowship at the University of Leiden Observatory in the Netherlands, continued to believe me, each year, when I said that the next year I would have more time. Then I had to tell her that, after all that effort, I was going to resign from the Pioneer mission before it arrived at Venus, turning the experiment over to Larry Travis, another friend and colleague from Iowa.
