Venus is famous for it's "greenhouse effect", in which the thick atmosphere traps all of the sun's heat inside, creating extreme temperatures. This is why Venus is hotter than Mercury, which is surprising because Mercury is closer to the sun.

Venus's atmosphere is 100 times as massive as Earth's, and it's thick cloud layers block the surface from view. It exerts a pressure of approximately 92 bars at the surface. It's composition is nearly all CO2.
