Can earth be seen from Venus'?

Answer 1

Venus is nearer the Sun than Earth, so it stays "near" the Sun from Earth's perspective. It's usually visible as a very bright morning or evening star (depending on exactly where it is in its orbit).

It's usually quite easy to see either just before sunrise or just after sunset; under normal conditions it's the third brightest object in the sky (after the Sun and Moon). However, there are times when it's too close to the Sun to see, and it gets washed out in the Sun's light.

Answer 2

You can see Venus from Earth with a telescope. You can also see Venus without a telescope. It is the brightest object in the sky, third only to the Sun and the Moon.

Right now, as of April 10, 2012, Venus is an evening planet. At 8:45pm, EDT, from New York, New York, it is about 24 degrees above the western horizon. This is when Jupiter, the fourth brightest object in the sky, is just setting.

Answer 3

The surface of Venus is not visible from earth or from space because the planet is covered by a dense opaque layer of clouds. The cloud layer is highly reflective and makes Venus the brightest object in the sky, after the moon.

The clouds also cause a Greenhouse Effect, preventing heat from radiating into space.

That creates surface temperatures high enough to melt lead.

Answer 4

Well, first of all, Venus is permanently and completely covered by dense clouds,

so if you were living on Venus, you would have no idea what stars and planets

are, and maybe not even what a sun is.

But if you could somehow see through the clouds from the surface of Venus,

here are a few things you'd see in the sky:

-- the sun ... bigger, brighter, and hotter than it appears from Earth

-- Venus takes 224 days to circle the sun once ... and about 20 days longer to

rotate once on its axis ... which it does backwards. I can't decipher right now

what that means in terms of the length of 'daylight', but trust me, it's weird,

and very long.

-- You would see the exact same stars and constellations from Venus that you

see from Earth. Instead of rotating around the whole sky once every 24 hours,

it would take them 243 days. Polaris would not be the center of their rotation.

-- You would see a "double planet" drifting through the stars, very bright, and

always very close to being over your equator. The larger, brighter one would be

distinctly blue-green, and you could see clouds on it through a small telescope.

The smaller, dimmer one, that always stayed close to it, would be a dull grey

color. If you watched the pair for a while, you'd notice that the smaller one

seemed to wiggle back and forth, and was actually revolving around the larger

one. They would be quite ineresting to watch when they were close to Venus.

At times, the smaller one would pass in front of the larger one, dimming it and

obscuring some surface features if you were watching through a telescope. And

at other times, the smaller one would pass behind the larger one, and couldn't

be seen at all for a while.

For casual observers, this double planet, and the show it put on, would be the

most interesting thing going on in the night sky of Venus. Its antics would be

familiar to many people, but for those who hardly ever looked up at night, this

pair of objects would be the source of thousands of questions here on WikiAnswers.

That bright, beautiful "double planet" as seen from Venus, would be the Earth and its moon.

Answer 5

Yes, Earth can be seen from Venus with the naked eye. However, due to the vast distance between the two planets, Earth would appear as a bright morning or evening star from Venus, similar to how Venus appears from Earth.

Answer 6

I assume you mean the planet.

Yes, Venus can be seen from Earth. It is usually the brightest star in the sky.

Answer 7

No it is not. It is the third brightest object in the sky, following only the Sun and the Moon.

Answer 8

it seems no,but if you use the special tools
