The planet Venus is the 2nd planet from the Sun and was discovered by Galileo.
Its atmosphere contains mostly of carbon dioxide (co2) about 94%.
Its nickname is "Earth's Sister Planet" because of its physical characteristics.
Along with Mercury, Earth, and Mars (the other 3 inner planets) it is a terrestrial planet and the outer planets are called Jovian planets. There are many differences between these two types of planets, but that's a different question that is off topic of Venus!!!
