Venus is visible in the night-sky for the same reason we see the moon - Sunlight is reflected off the surface.
Venus
The bright light in the eastern sky at night in southern Oregon is likely the planet Venus. Venus is the third-brightest object in the sky after the Sun and the Moon, and it is often visible in the morning or evening.
yes, when one side of glass painted by mercury, it becomes a mirror!
Electromagnetic radiation with range and wavelength between 3900 (VIOLET) and 7700 (RED)... I think the question refers to the length of daylight and night on Venus. The solar day is about 117 Earth days. So, roughly the daylight and night should be about 58 Earth days each. Venus rotates at almost 90 degrees to its orbit so the day/night lengths should not vary too much.
The Sun is significantly brighter than Venus. Venus appears bright in the night sky due to its proximity to Earth and its reflective atmosphere, but the Sun is the brightest object in our solar system by far.
Venus' atmosphere makes the planet bright with sun rays reflecting against it.
You are able to see venus because it reflects light from the sun. by,jackie(5b)
because the sun gives it light ** All planets travel in an orbit around the sun and by doing so at certain times they are well visible from Earth. When we can see Venus in the night sky, it is in an orbit closes to the Earth at that time. Other planets will also be seen when their orbit carries them close to Earths orbit.
Venus has an atmosphere of thick, swirling clouds. Which reflects light very well.
It does reflect light, just like all the other planets.

Oh, happy little question! Venus does not actually twinkle in the night sky like some other stars do. Its light is quite steady and strong due to how close it is to Earth and how its thick atmosphere interacts with light. Isn't that just magical to think about?

there are certain times when those planets... like venus..... are in an alignment with the sun and the sun's light... letting those planets REFLECT the same light the stars do...... the sun's light...... without the sun's light..... the stars too would be dark ^^

Venus doesn't get cold at night because it is so close to the sun.
