If viewed from "above", from where you could see the earth's north pole and from where you would always see each planet half illuminated by the sun, all of the planets in our solar system revolve counterclockwise (anticlockwise).
When viewed from ecliptic north, both Venus and Earth orbit the Sun in a counterclockwise direction. This counterclockwise motion is consistent for all planets in our solar system, as they all orbit the Sun in the same direction due to the initial angular momentum of the solar nebula from which they formed.
No. Venus is the 2nd planet from the Sun; Earth is #3.
Venus orbits the sun.
Venus orbits the Sun, not the Earth
Mercury and Venus orbit the sun faster than Earth. Mercury has the shortest orbit at around 88 Earth days, while Venus takes about 225 Earth days to complete one orbit.
One year on Venus is equivalent to about 225 Earth days. This is because Venus takes about 225 Earth days to orbit around the sun once. Additionally, Venus has a retrograde rotation, meaning it rotates on its axis in the opposite direction compared to most other planets.
Venus' orbital period is 224.7 earth days.
a retrograde rotation, meaning it rotates in the opposite direction compared to its orbit around the Sun.
It takes Venus about 224.7 "Earth days" to complete one orbit.
Mercury and Venus orbit between the Sun and Earth.
Mars and Venus orbit closest to the earth in the order sunward to rimward: Venus, Earth, Mars.
No. The orbit of Venus is closer to Earth's orbit than the orbit of Mars, by an average of 38 million kilometers (Venus 108 million km, Earth 150 million km, Mars 230 million km)Mars is only the closest planet to Earth when Venus is on the opposite side of the Sun from Earth and Mars is on the same side as Earth and Mars is not too far ahead or behind the Earth in their orbits.It can be as long as an entire Earth year that Mars is not closer, and it will only be closer for less than 4 months at a time.
