closer to the sun. the second planet from the sun and the earth is the third planet out from the sun
Venus and Earth are often referred to as sister planets because they are similar in size and composition. They are both terrestrial planets with solid surfaces and are situated relatively close to each other in the solar system.
A planet that formed closer to the Sun than Earth, but not the closest, is Venus. Venus is the second planet from the Sun, situated between Mercury (the closest) and Earth. It has a similar size and composition to Earth, often referred to as Earth's "sister planet," but has a thick, toxic atmosphere and extreme surface temperatures.
Venus' radius = 0.95 of Earth's Venus' mass = 0.815 of Earth's
Mercury and Venus are closer to the sun than the earth, so from them you do not experience a solar transit by earth.
Venus orbits the sun.
The mass on Venus compared to Earth is 80%.
Earth's shadow does NOT hit Venus! It can not.
Venus and Earth are about (earth is a small bit bigger) the same size. That's why Venus is called Earths sister
Venus has almost the same mass and diameter as the earth.
