The closest planet to pluto?
neptuneNeptune is the closest to Pluto. Uranus is the second closest planet to Pluto. Saturn is the third closest planet to Pluto. Jupiter is the forth closest planet to Pluto. Mars is the fifth closest planet to Pluto. Earth is the sixth closest planet to Pluto. Venus is the seventh closest planet to Pluto. Mercury is the most furthest away from Pluto. The Sun and the moon are not considered as planets. The planet Pluto is also not considered as a planet.
Is venus the third planet to be next to the sun?
The order of planets from closest to furthest from the sun are: Mercury Venus Earth Mars Asteroid belt (this isn't a planet, but this is where most asteroids are located) Jupiter Saturn Uranus Neptune Pluto So Venus is the 2nd planet from the sun. Earth (our planet) is the third.
Which planet is most similar in size to earth?
Venus is the closest in size but it is a very different planet in all other respects. The atmosphere is very thick and almost completely made of carbon dioxide. Venus suffers from severe global warming with surface temperatures of 400-500 degrees C.Venus is the closest to Earth in terms of size comparison, it is a little smaller.venus is closest, and then mars is half the size. (of earth)Venus is closest to Earth's size.Venus is 81.5% the mass of Earth. It's the closest in size to Earth.Venus is roughly the same size as Earth.Venus is very close to the size of the Earth, only about 5% smaller.Venus is the closest size to Earth and is sometimes called "Earth's sister planet." Its diameter is 95% of Earth's but its mass is only 81% as much.It is also often the closest planet to Earth, except when it is on the opposite side of the Sun, when either Mars or Mercury may be the closest in distance. The density of Venus is the closest to the Earth's density of the major planets.Venus, which is called the "sister planet" because of it being almost equal in size as the EarthVenus is the planet closest in size to the Earth's size.The equatorial diameter of Venus is about 95% the size of the earth's equatorial diameter. Venus also happens to be the planet whose: -- orbit is closest to the size of earth's orbit -- minimum distance from earth is the least -- appearance in our sky is brighter than any other object except the sun and moon -- mass is closest to the earth's mass -- density is closest to the earth's densityVenus
Is the planet Venus the most gaseous planet?
Venus is not a gaseous planet. It is a rocky planet covered by cloud.
Venus is most similar in size and mass to which planet?
the planet Venus is most like is Earth
What is the most gaseous inner planet?
the most gaseous inner planet would be Venus, also the hottest planet
What planet is mostly made of a thick cloudy atmosphere with just a small rocky core?
The planet you're thinking of is most likely Venus. Being the second closest to Sol, it explains the greenhouse effect to the max. Comments: Venus is not mainly atmosphere. The answer could be one of the gas giants, particularly Jupiter. However, there is really no planet in our solar system that properly fits the description.
What is the 2nd hottest planet in the solar system?
No. Venus is the hottest planet, even though Mercury is the closest planet to the Sun. Mercury receives the most solar radiation from the Sun, and its rotation is very slow, so the surface can heat up to over 430 degrees C. But when that part of the surface faces away from the Sun, the temperature drops to minus 200 degrees C. There is no atmosphere to distribute the heat. By contrast, Venus, the hottest planet, has a dense atmosphere of carbon dioxide and sulfuric acid clouds. This is the reason that Venus can get hotter than Mercury. The atmosphere traps solar heat and keeps the entire planet very hot all of the time. It is like a greenhouse with no exhaust valve and no door to let the heat out. The surface temperature of Venus is about 460 degrees C even at night.
Which terrestrial planet has the most atmosphere Earth or Venus?
Venus
Brightest planet in the sky?
From Earth, the planet Venus is the brightest. When it's close to Earth in it's orbital cycle (about every 18 months) it can be easily seen early in the morning just before the sun rise, and again at night just after the sun has set.
