Venus takes 243 days to spin on its axis relative to the background stars, while it takes 224.7 days to orbit the sun. Although its spin on its axis is longer that its orbital period, an apparent day is 116.75 days, since it spins in the other direction to Earth and most other planets.

A rotation of Venus relative to the fixed stars is 5832 hours.

A solar or apparent day is 2802 hours.

How many hours does it take Venus to spin once?

It takes about 243 of our days for Venus to do one rotation. That is about 5,832 hours.


If you stayed on Venus for one week how many earth days would that be?

A day on Venus is equal to 243 Earth Days. So a week on Venus would be 1,701 Earth days or 4.65 Earth years. However, a Venus year is only 224 Earth Days!!! so a week could be 4.3 Earth days


How many earth days equal one sidereal day on venus?

The sidereal day is the time it takes for a planet to rotate once. For Venus that's about 243 of our Earth days.


How many earth days is a year on Venus?

1 day on Venus is as long as one year on Earth. No seriously, that is true, it takes about one year for venus to make a complete rotation (i dont mean revolution, but rotation like spinning a basket ball.) Actually Venus rotates in about 243 Earth days and that's only about 8 months, not a year. One day on Venus is about 243 Earth days long. There are 24 hours in a day on Earth, 243 x 24=5832 hours. That's the rotation period, known as the "sidereal day". But it's more complicated than that because you're ignoring the "solar day". The solar day depends on a planet's motion round the Sun as well as its spin. For Venus the solar day is about 116.75 Earth days. That's about 116.75 x 24 = 2802 hours.


1 day on Venus is equal to how many earth days?

It takes about 243 days for Venus to rotate once. This is called a sidereal day. However Venus has a "solar day" of about 117 Earth days. The solar day is how long the Sun takes to move across the sky from noon to noon. This depends not just on the spin of a planet ,but also on it's journey round the Sun.

How many hours make a day on Venus?

This question is meaningless. An Earth day would be the same length no matter what planet you are on. An Earth day would be the equivalent of 0.004 Venus days and about the same number of Venus year (it takes a whole year for Venus to go round its orbit). A Venus day is 243 Earth days. That's 243 Earth days to rotate once. Astronomers call this a sidereal day. However there is also the solar day of 117 Earth days.

How many days long is Venus' years?

Solar day (24 hours for the Earth): about 116.75 Earth days. Sidereal day (rotation period, about 23 hours and 56 minutes for the Earth): about 243 Earth days. Year: about 224.7 Earth days.
