because it has humans in it and humans need light
Superior planets (those outside Earth's orbit) appear brightest when they are at opposition, which is when they are on the opposite side of Earth from the Sun. This is when they are closest to Earth and fully illuminated by the Sun.
This is because sunlight is reflected by the planet's water
I think you're talking about Venus After the Moon, it is the brightest natural object in the night sky.
The sun and the moon are not planets. The sun is a star and the moon is a natural satellite. The brightest planet in Earth's sky is Venus.

No, all the planets, including the Earth, orbit the Sun.
All planets rotate. Even earth.
There are no stars in the earth's atmosphere. The brightest star, also the brightest object of any kind, in our sky is the sun. It's about 375,000 times farther from you than the top end of earth's atmosphere is. The moon and several of the planets are all brighter than all the other stars. The second brightest star in the sky ... next after the sun ... is the one called 'Sirius'. It's located about 8.6 light-years from us, which is about 63,000 times farther than the sun.
The five outer planets are the ones with bigger orbits than the Earth, which are Mars and the four giant planets. The outer planets can be seen at their brightest at midnight, when they are at opposition. That never happens for the inner planets Mercury and Venus.
The earth isn't the brightest planet,it is Venus.
Viewed from Earth, Venus is the brightest planet.
The planets in order from brightest to dullest are Venus, Jupiter, Mars, Mercury, Saturn, and sometimes, in certain conditions, Uranus and Neptune. Venus is typically the brightest planet in the sky, while Neptune is the dullest due to its distance from the Sun.
