Not very. Venus has a thick atmosphere and extensive cloud cover, both of which factors tend to even out the temperature on both sides. It's probably slightly cooler on the night side, but not nearly enough to be comfortable for humans (even assuming you could deal with breathing what amounts to carbonated sulfuric acid).
Mercury's surface temperature can vary depending on its distance from the sun, ranging from over 800 degrees Fahrenheit on the side facing the sun to around -290 degrees Fahrenheit on the side facing away from the sun.
Because it is so close to the Sun and has almost no atmosphere, the side facing away from the Sun is very cold (-170 Celsius, -275 Fahrenheit) and the side facing it gets very hot (450 Celsius, 840 Fahrenheit). In case you were wondering, it is hot enough to melt lead, but only when it's facing the Sun enough. And Venus can melt lead anywhere (all year) because it's extremely dense atmosphere traps the heat in a greenhouse effect. These are the only two planets that can melt lead.
venus on the sun's side and mars on the other side that is far from the sun.
Mercury is known for extreme temperatures, with highs around 430°C (800°F) on the side facing the Sun and lows around -180°C (-290°F) on the side facing away from the Sun.
Mercury, with almost no atmosphere, is also closest to the sun and has the largest range of temperatures between the side facing the sun and the side facing away - a difference of about 600 K.
Well, assuming the Earth rotated in such a way that one side was always facing the sun and the opposite side were always facing away from it, like Venus (maybe it was Mercury), then Earth could not support life because the side facing the sun would be very hot, and the other side would be very cold, like Venus, the side always facing the sun is around 900 degrees F, and the cold side is around -280 or -300 degrees F.
sense it does not spin on it's axis its both hot and cold. the side facing the sun is hot and the side away is relatively cold
The extreme temperatures on Venus and Mercury are due to their proximity to the Sun. Venus has a thick atmosphere that traps heat, creating a greenhouse effect. In contrast, Mercury has no atmosphere to retain heat, resulting in very hot temperatures on the side facing the Sun and very cold temperatures on the side facing away.
If the Earth stopped rotating, there would be significant impacts. The side facing the Sun would become very hot while the side facing away would become very cold. This temperature difference could lead to extreme weather patterns and have disastrous consequences for life on Earth.
It depends on which side you are on. Because Venus has a day longer than it's year, the side facing the Sun does so for over a year. So it's definitely hotter than Earth there. The side facing away from the Sun doesn't see the sun for over a year, so that side cools down drastically, thus it is colder than Earth there.
Mercury's surface temperature can vary depending on its distance from the sun, ranging from over 800 degrees Fahrenheit on the side facing the sun to around -290 degrees Fahrenheit on the side facing away from the sun.
It's actually because, though Mercury is allot closer to the Sun than Venus, Venus spins round like earth..... Meaning that Venus is hot all around it's surface. However Mercury stays with one side facing the sun, leaving only one side of Mercury to be hot, and the other..... Well, freezing cold I'd say.
Yes, Venus has one cold side and one hot side and if you land on Venus you would probably freeze or melt.2nd Answer:That is true for the planet Mercury, but Venus is covered with thick clouds which hold in the heat. The temperature is always about 860 degrees, F.
It is very hot on the side that is facing the sun and very cold on the side that is not facing the sun. This is because Mars has a very thin atmosphere.
The closest planet to the sun is Mercury. Mercury is not the hottest planet because it has no atmosphere to hold onto that heat, so it quickly radiates that heat back into space. As a result the side of Mercury facing the sun is quite hot while the side facing away is cold. Venus, the second planet from the sun, is the hottest as its dense carbon dioxide atmosphere is very good at retaining heat.
It means, facing away from the pulley
Because that side of the earth is facing away from the sun.
