Is Venus hotter than our hottest desert?
Yes, far hotter. The surface temperature of Venus is comparable to that of an oven on its clean cycle.
Is Venus' the next earth?
Not a chance. Venus (surface temperature: 900 degrees F.) will only get hotter as time goes on.
What is the primary reason why the surface of Venus today is some 450C hotter than the surface of Earth?
A combination of things. First, Venus is much closer to the sun than earth, so its surface receives more radiant energy from the sun. Add to that the fact that Venus is surrounded by a thick layer of carbon dioxide clouds, which create a runaway greenhouse effect. Bottom line: Venus's surface is about 800 degrees hotter than earth's surface.
