According to Wikipedia: "The lander functioned for at least 57 minutes (the planned design life was 32 minutes) in an environment with a temperature of 465 °C (869 °F) and a pressure of 94 Earth atmospheres (9.5 MPa)."
Earth is actually fucking wild man. All these high res photos of desolate planets just make me appreciate earths beauty, biodiversity, ecosystems, etc. even more.

This was the best Soviet space mission. Very impressive even by today's standards.
