Venus has the greatest visual magnitude when viewed from Earth.
Note: one might think Jupiter would have the greatest visual magnitude, but Jupiter is quite far away from Earth, and reflects back much less sunlight than the inner planets.
Venus is the brightest celestial body in the earth's night sky. Venus is the planet with the greatest visual magnitude.
Venus has a brighter visual magnitude for two reasons.
1. Venus is closer to the sun, and only shines by reflected sunlight.
2. Venus is a lot CLOSER than Jupiter is.
Venus (when viewed from Earth)

me The planets. unlike the sun do not produce their own light. As seen from Earth, the planet with the greatest magnitude is Venus.
The limiting visual apparent magnitude of a 200 inch diameter telescope is very large. It will reach a magnitude of over 500.
The bolometric correction allows you to convert between visual and bolometric (total) magnitude - where the bolometric magnitude includes all radiation emitted by the star, not just visible light. It has nothing to do with the angular diameter.
It depends on what type of planet it is.... which one is it?
Mercury has the greatest temperature extremes of and planet.
Mercury's brightness, as seen from Earth, can vary as much as 6 magnitudes, depending on where it is in its orbit. This variation in apparent visual magnitude is the greatest compared to the other planets within our solar system.
Yes. Sirius has the greatest apparent visual magnitude of any star in the sky except the sun.
Apparent magnitude is 0.77 Absolute magnitude is 2.21Wikipedia lists its visual magnitude as 0.77.

The brightness of a star is called visual magnitude. The lower the visual magnitude is the brighter the star is.
Visual Planet was created in 2001.
well it depens on what magnitude? For example is it visual, apparent, or absolute?
Arcturus has an Apparent magnitude (visual magnitude) of −0.04, but note it is a variable star.
The limiting visual apparent magnitude of a 200 inch diameter telescope is very large. It will reach a magnitude of over 500.
Visual magnitude 2.02.
A star with an apparent visual magnitude of 3.2 appears 1.4 magnitudes brighter than another one whose apparent visual magnitude is 4.6 .
13.4 -15.4=2 so 2 % brighter
