What is the brother planet to earth?
Well, darling, the brother planet to Earth is technically Venus. They're both rocky planets and are similar in size, but Venus is just a little hotter and has a bit of an attitude problem with its thick atmosphere of carbon dioxide. So, if Earth and Venus were siblings, Earth would be the responsible one while Venus would be the rebellious troublemaker.
Which planet is most similar in size to earth?
Venus is the closest in size but it is a very different planet in all other respects. The atmosphere is very thick and almost completely made of carbon dioxide.
