Planet Venus

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.

The term "morning star" can refer to the planet Venus when it is visible in the east before sunrise. "Muta" is a term in Islamic law that refers to a temporary marriage contract.

Yes, astronomers have gathered data on Venus's surface using spacecraft missions and radar imaging techniques. Venus's surface is extremely hot, with temperatures reaching around 900 degrees Fahrenheit, and pressure over 90 times that of Earth's. It is covered in volcanic plains, mountains, and large impact craters.

Early spacecraft that attempted to land on Venus encountered extreme temperatures, pressure, and corrosive atmosphere that made it difficult for them to survive. The Russian Venera spacecrafts were the first to successfully land on Venus, but their missions were short-lived due to the harsh conditions on the planet's surface.

Venus is brighter than Jupiter in the night sky because Venus is closer to Earth and its thick cloud cover reflects more sunlight, making it the third brightest object in the sky after the sun and the moon. Jupiter is the fourth brightest object in the sky and is usually easily visible to the naked eye.

Gravity is not particularly strong on Venus it's about the same as it is on Earth, 8.87 m/s2, vs. 9.81 m/s2. That's not surprising since the two planets have about the same size, and Venus is a bit less dense.

Atmospheric pressure is very high on Venus, but that's another story.

Venus and Earth are about (earth is a small bit bigger) the same size. That's why Venus is called Earths sister

You can see Venus in the evening sky just after sunset and Saturn in the early morning sky just before sunrise. The visibility of planets depends on their position relative to the Sun, so the best times to see them without a telescope change throughout the year.

The brightest star in the morning sky is often Venus. It is sometimes referred to as the Morning Star because of how bright it appears before sunrise.

Earth is Venus' neighbor in our solar system. It is the second planet from the Sun, and Earth is the third planet from the Sun, making them relatively close to each other in space.

A small amount of wool yarn is typically referred to as a hank rather than a skein. A hank is a looped bundle of yarn that needs to be wound into a ball before use. A skein is a different form of yarn packaging and usually contains a larger quantity of yarn.

Earth and Venus are both terrestrial planets, meaning they have a solid surface. They also have similar sizes, with Venus being slightly smaller than Earth. Additionally, both planets have atmospheres, but Venus has a thick, toxic atmosphere made mostly of carbon dioxide.

1. Nitrogen. This is "minor".
2. Carbon dioxide. This is the "major" gas. It makes up about 95% of the atmosphere.

Both Venus and Mercury are terrestrial planets with no moons and very little to no atmosphere. They are both located relatively close to the Sun compared to other planets in the solar system. Additionally, both planets have extreme temperature variations, with very hot temperatures on the side facing the Sun and very cold temperatures on the side facing away.

There are different definitions for day, but on average the Martian day is 38 minutes longer than the Earth day.

Venus takes about 225 Earth days to complete one orbit around the Sun.

The holy Shekinah is a concept in Jewish mysticism, representing the presence of the divine. It does not have specific dates associated with it but is believed to be ever-present in the world.

No, Venus and Earth are not nearly identical. While they are similar in size and composition, there are significant differences between the two planets. Venus has a much thicker atmosphere, extreme temperatures that can melt lead, and a slow retrograde rotation, among other distinctions.

Pythagoras is credited with noticing that the morning star and the evening star were one and the same. He understood that both objects were actually the planet Venus appearing at different times during the day.

Venus's thick atmosphere creates a greenhouse effect, trapping heat and making it extremely hot. The dense clouds of sulfuric acid in its atmosphere reflect much of the sunlight back into space, so Venus does not have clear, sunny days like on Earth.

Venus rotates very slowly on its axis, taking about 243 Earth days to complete one rotation. This is longer than the time it takes Venus to orbit the Sun, which is about 225 Earth days. This slow rotation means a day on Venus (from one sunrise to the next) is actually longer than a year on Venus.

The average distance between Venus and Mars is about 261.21 million miles (420.34 million kilometers). However, their distance from each other can vary significantly due to their elliptical orbits around the Sun.

• Neptune is freezing. Mars is warm
• Neptune is blue. Mars is red
• Neptune is a gas giant. Mars is a solid planet
• Neptune is not capable of supporting life. Mars can theoretically support a human colony
• Neptune has 13 moons. Mars has 2 moons
• Neptune has rings. Mars has no rings
• Neptune is large. Mars is small
• Neptune's atmosphere is composed of helium, hydrogen and methane. Mars's atmosphere is composed of carbon dioxide, nitrogen and argon with small traces of oxygen and methane
• Neptune has ice. Mars has small traces of water

Venus has been visible to the earliest generations and has always been a topic of conversations and speculation.

With the advent of the telescope it was apparent that the surface of Venus was never visible, it was always covered in clouds. Year in year out.

Early astronomers thought that clouds meant clouds as on Earth, and thus it must have lots of water. If it had lots of water vapour, it must be hot. So what - as their thoughts went - is an area that is hot and has lots of water. A swamp.

So Venus was believed to be a hot and a moist planet. How wrong they were. If there was a hell, Venus would be it.

However, there is a good possibility that Venus DID have water about a billion or two years ago, but something happened to the carbon cycle that caused the runaway greenhouse effect.

It is now a probable coincidence that the Earth will follow Venus within a billion year or sooner if we are not careful.
