venus because its similar to earth by size, mass, and density But there the similarities end. Venus has no oceans, also Venus is covered by thick, rapidly spinning clouds that trap surface heat, creating a scorched greenhouse-like world with temperatures hot enough to melt lead and pressure so intense that standing on Venus would feel like the pressure felt 900 meters deep in Earth's oceans. These clouds reflect sunlight in addition to trapping heat. Because Venus reflects so much sunlight, it is usually the brightest planet in the night sky.

Venus is often referred to as Earth's sister planet because of their similarities in size, composition, and proximity to the Sun. Both planets are terrestrial planets with solid surfaces and have roughly the same mass and radius. However, Venus has a thick atmosphere that traps heat, making it much hotter than Earth.

Venus, in terms of size. Mars is closer, in terms of climate, though we still could not breath there and there is no appreciable surface water.
