Yes. Even a fairly small telescope will be adequate to reveal "the horns" of Venus. When Venus is at its maximum distance from the sun (to our perspective--not its aphelion) it will be half full. After that it either becomes crescent shaped as it swings our way, or fills out as it moves behind the sun.
What else can I help you with?
What tools will i need to observe the moon?
a telescope
Why does an observer on earth see the phases of the moon?
By, um, looking at it. You'll probably need a telescope, and you'll have to observe it for a considerable period of time (several months at least) to notice much of a change.
Did the roman gods need to use a telescope to see Venus?
Venus is a Roman God, so, no.
Why do scientists need the SKA telescope?
to observe the solar system
Will you need a telescope to view the 2012 transit of Venus?
Yes, with special filters.
Do the observed phases of Venus support the heliocentric system?
The phases of Venus are well supported by the heliocentric system, but they are also supported very well by the previous geocentric system. All you need for Venus to have phases is that Venus should pass between Earth and Sun. That happens in both the heliocentric system and the geocentric system.

Which planet is visible from earth in the night sky?
That applies mainly to the inner planets: Mercury and Venus. Mars, being further from the Sun than Earth, can at most have a "three-quarter" phase, but you can't see it as a crescent, since that would require Mars to be basically between the Sun and Earth, which isn't possible. Saturn shows no phases.
What is the history of Venus?
According to scientists, Venus is considered one of the brightest planets that can be seen without the need for a telescope. The planet was named after the Greek goddess of love which was Aphrodite and it was discovered by the mathematician Pythagoras.
What kind of telescope do you need to look into space?
You would need a telescope with a large aperture to observe objects in space clearly. Aperture size is important for collecting enough light from distant objects. A telescope with a minimum aperture of 4 inches is recommended for observing celestial objects such as galaxies, nebulae, and star clusters.
Which planet is the easiest to spot using a telescope?
The Earth is definitely the #1 easiest. Next in line would be Mercury, Venus, Mars, Jupiter, and Saturn. Each of those is visible without a telescope, so you'd know exactly where to point your telescope by seeing the planet with your eye first. The brightest planet that you do need a telescope to see is Uranus. So you definitely won't miss it when you're pointed at it, but you need to know where to point.
