Galileo was the first person to study Venus it was 1610 when he started.e.

Venus meaning female, love, beauty

and money. It was named after Aphrodite the goddess of love and beauty. But she actually also rules our sentiments, what we value, and the pleasure we have in life. Grace and charm are ruled by Venus. Through Venus, we learn about our tastes, pleasures, artistic inclinations, and what makes us happy.

Aphrodite was born on the island of Cytherea, South of the Pelopennes. She had one immortal son Eros. Aphrodite was married with Hephaistos, but later in the mythology Ares, the God of War, became the husband of Aphrodite. Venus was named after her because of the pinky color of the surface of the planet.

Venus is approximately 67.2 million miles or 108.2 million kilometers or 67,230,000 miles away from the Sun.

The distance between Earth and Venus varies from 38 million kilometres or 23.7 million miles. When its at its closest point to earth it is 261 million kilometres or 162 million miles. Its at its most distant when it is behind the Sun. Venus rotates clockwise, the opposite way to the Earth.

Venus orbits the sun in approximately 225 Earth days(224.70069 days). Strange as it may seem, Venus rotates so slowly that a "day" on Venus is longer than its year. It takes Venus about 243 Earth days to spin once on its axis. The slow rotation is also in a retrograde.

One Venus day equals 243 Earth days. Seven Venus days equals 1701 Earth days, or 4.66 Earth years. One year on Venus is equal to one year on Earth because the measurement of a year is an Earthly measurement. 3.12 days pass on Venus in one Earth year.

Venus is the second planet from the Sun. It orbits the Sun once every 225 days and makes one rotation on its axis every 243 days. This makes one day on Venus longer than one year.
