The top of Mt Everest has an atmospheric pressure of 1/3 sea level, 4.9 psi vs 14.7 psi. Mars has an atmosphere 0.6% of Earth’s or 0.09 psi. There’s no way you’re going to survive even double that without a pressure suit, even with bottled oxygen.
Yea i think im wrong there, i thought you could not boil over to around 30km here, but looks like that is less at 18km. And mars pressure wise is in the 30km equiv.
So, no walking about 
except like this
Back to the habitat.
All this discussion on Mars and and Titan when there is a nearby Earth clone that is being overlooked
Hypothetical question
Suppose Venus could be pushed into Earth’s orbit (Yes, I know that is not realistic)
Could its atmosphere be modified so that it could be possible to live in ?
What I am getting at it is that it is of a similar size and gravity to the Earth. By putting it in an orbit (and conditions) similar to Earth, could this even be feasible?
Thanks for any answers
Venus has an equatorial rotational velocity of about 6.5 km per
Your, meaning that it rotates once every 243 days. Setting aside the problems with its atmosphere and lack of magnetic field, it would not be possible to create a terrestrial environment without imparting sufficient rotational speed.

Thanks, Great points
Aside from a long day, what would be the problems of the slow rotational period?
I wonder whether “fixing” Venus would require moving the orbit or whether we could simply remove enough atmosphere (or unhelpful constituents thereof) to solve the greenhouse problem and get the temp and pressures down to human-compatible levels.
A bit of googling suggests not.
The average surface temp of a no-atmosphere Earth is (very) roughly 0F. Venus has about 2x the solar irradiance of Earth 2.6kw vs 1.3kW/m[sup]2[/sup]. Venus gonna be hot no matter what kind of atmosphere you put over it. Even none.
As Stranger says, “fixing” the slow rotation is job 1 for delivering any kind of livable climate.
The more we talk about all this terraforming stuff, the more it’s obvious that a giant ball of rock is a really stupid thing to try to live on. All that useless bulk just to make some gravity. There’s gotta be an easier way to make some gravity. Then we can concentrate on the part that matters, the biosphere. That thin film sticking, more or less, to the surface of our big dumb gravity generator.
The sunward side of the planet is going to get very hot while the back side will be frigidly cold. This would have a dramatic effect on climate (perpetual wind, annual deep freezing, sterilizing hot summers). It would not be habitable or arable on the surface regardless of what atmosphere you managed to wrap it in.

You could make a bunch of hollow rings, affix them to a big central axis, and then just spin it.
All docking functions etc could be done via the central axis where you could simply counter rotate the docking assembly as needed? (so we arent trying to spin a shuttle to match ala Interstellar)
It seems a simple way, i’m sure there is a reason it is not
You need scrith for that.
Yes, there are ways to terraform Venus, but it would take a huge effort and a very long time.
1/ Build a sunshade at the Venus/Sun L1 point. This will cool the planet controllably.
2/ Illuminate the planet with a swarm of orbiting mirrors to replicate a day/night cycle.
3/Import hydrogen/. This is optional - Venus already has enough hydrogen to make a pond 1 metre deep all over the surface. But this is tiny compared to Earth’s water reservoir so we would probably need more. The hydrogen can be combined with local oxygen to create seas.
4/ Wait for thousands of years while the carbon in the atmosphere is incorporated into the crust, or remove it for export. Carbon is likely to become the construction material of choice for many purposes, in its various allotropes graphene, diamond, and carbon nanotube, among others.
There are lots of ways to finagle the result to make it a little faster and or hospitable but the rough outline is there. Don’t expect a comfortable planet for thousands of years; it will never be naturally self-maintaining, like the Earth is.
Uh? i was thinking more like carbon, fibre or maybe nanotubes?
I dont think scrith exists on earth or anyplace close by?
