To compare the sizes of Earth and Venus, a scale diagram that accurately represents their diameters is most effective. Earth has a diameter of about 12,742 km, while Venus has a diameter of approximately 12,104 km. A diagram illustrating these diameters side by side would clearly show that Venus is slightly smaller than Earth, with both planets being similar in size and often referred to as "sister planets." A scale diagram that visually represents these dimensions in proportion will provide the best comparison.

What do astronomers use to measure planets?

Planets' sizes are measured from their angular width as seen from the Earth. The basic scale of distances is calibrated by measurements of Venus from different points on Earth at the time of a transit of Venus.


How does the eccentricity of earth compare to other planets?

Earth has an average eccentricity in its orbit of 0.0167. This compares with 0.0068 for Venus and 0.205 for Mercury, which are the minimum and maximum eccentricities in the eight planets. So, the Earth's orbit is not too far from circular. In order of increasing eccentricity, the list of planets is: Venus Neptune Earth Uranus Jupiter Saturn Mars Mercury.
