Planet Venus

That depends on the speed that you're traversing, The closest Venus comes to Earth in it's orbit around the Sun is about 25 million miles. If you were traveling to Venus in a rocket ship at a speed of 25,000 miles per hour, it would take you 1,000 hours to get there, or 41.66 days.

One year on Venus is equivalent to about 225 Earth days. This is because Venus takes about 225 Earth days to orbit around the sun once. Additionally, Venus has a retrograde rotation, meaning it rotates on its axis in the opposite direction compared to most other planets.

There is a slim chance of microbial life existing in the clouds of Venus where conditions might be more hospitable, but it is still largely unknown. The surface of Venus is extremely inhospitable with high temperatures and pressures, making it unlikely for complex forms of life to exist there.

Miranda - the smallest of Uranus' five major moons - was discovered by Gerard Kuiper on 16th Feb 1948 at the McDonald Observatory.

Venus has a similar chemical composition to Earth. It is the hottest planet in the solar system, the surface is extremely dry with no liquid water. The surface is covered by smooth plains and long lava flows.

Venus was not founded by a single individual, as it is a natural planet in our solar system. It originated like all other planets through the process of planetary formation around 4.5 billion years ago.

No, Venus is not the smallest planet in our solar system. In fact, Venus is almost the same size as Earth, with a diameter of about 12,104 kilometers compared to Earth's 12,742 kilometers. Mercury is the smallest planet in our solar system.

Venus is on average about 30 million miles closer to the sun than Earth. This proximity to the sun causes Venus to have a much hotter surface temperature compared to Earth.

A venue is a place, it can be any place. Example: The Boston lawyer asked the judge for a change of venue, he felt his client could not get a fair trial in Boston. So a change in venue means the lawyer is asking that his trial be moved to a different city.

Yes, there are minerals on Venus. The surface of Venus is composed of rocks made of minerals such as basalt and volcanic materials like lava flows. However, the extreme temperature and pressure conditions on Venus make it difficult to study the mineral composition in detail.

Yes, Venus has many impact craters on its surface, but they are less common and less well-preserved compared to other planets like the Moon due to Venus's thick atmosphere, which burns up smaller meteoroids before they can reach the surface. Some of the largest craters on Venus are Mead, Cleopatra, and Airy.

Venus is very similar to Earth in terms of its size and composition, but not in surface conditions. Venus has a very dense atmosphere composed mostly of carbon dioxide. Temperatures are around 850 degrees Fahrenheit day and night.

Venus has a diameter of about 12,104 kilometers, which is similar to Earth's diameter. It is sometimes called Earth's "sister planet" due to its similar size and proximity to our planet in the solar system.

"Rotation" is when a planet or moon turns all the way around or spins on its axis one time. A "revolution" around the Sun takes about 365 days for Earth. Venus' revolution period is about225 Earth days.

So, it takes Venus about 225 Earth days to "revolve around the Sun".

Check the right-hand column of the link for the answer.

The atmosphere is about 96% carbon dioxide and 3.5% nitrogen. There are traces of other gases such as argon, sulfur dioxide and water vapour.

The time it takes for a probe to reach Venus depends on the specific trajectory and launch window chosen. Typically, it takes anywhere from a few months to over a year for a spacecraft to reach Venus from Earth. For example, the Parker Solar Probe took about 6 months to reach Venus during its gravity assist maneuvers.

Earth and Venus share some similarities, such as being rocky planets of similar size and having similar compositions. However, they also have significant differences, such as Venus having a thick toxic atmosphere and extreme surface temperatures due to its greenhouse effect. Overall, while they have some similarities, calling them twins would overlook their distinct differences.

What do Astronomers do?

In general, astronomers seek an understanding of how the Universe works; from the planets in our own Solar System, to the evolution of stars and nebulae, to whole systems of galaxies, to the properties and fate of the Universe as a whole. Modern astronomy is an interdisciplinary science that relies upon, and furthers the development of, fields such as physics, chemistry, computer science, and mathematics.

Only the very nearest astronomical objects (all within our Solar System) can be reached by spacecraft in a reasonable amount of time. Information about all other objects comes indirectly from earthbound telescopes or earth-orbiting satellites, which observe light emitted or reflected from such objects. The collection and detailed analysis of this light is key to unlocking the mysteries of the observable Universe. The sole purpose of a telescope is to collect this light; it is the role of the astronomer to analyze and interpret this data.

They are almost the same size. But Venus has a very thick atmosphere of almost pure carbon dioxide, which means that it suffer from chronic global warming with surface temperatures of 400-500 degrees C.

Assuming that you were on the ultimate suicide mission, planet Venus would be your one-stop-shop for all that is exactly that, suicide.

Let's pretend that you were desending upon the atmosphere and ultimately the planet itself, this is how it would go down:

The first thing you would notice (if you were to make the observation) is that the planet is actually similar in size to Earth, which will literally be the last comforting thought you will have during this journey. This planet is likely the LEAST inhabitable place for life in our solar system short of probably the Sun itself. Insanely thick, dense clouds line the atmosphere of this planet...the greenhouse effect is so powerful, that you should feel lucky to even be able to look at it as closely as you are, previous to desent...this is because these clouds are PURE SULFURIC ACID! Yes, you read correctly...and it only gets better! Assuming that you are actually able to penetrate the clouds, the greenhouse effect that the sulfuric acid produces creates an inner temperature of about 400 degrees, which is hot enough to melt lead. Yeah. Good luck with that.

At least the closer you get to the surface of the planet, the powerful winds die down to a relatively nice breeze...assuming that you enjoy the breeze of Sulfuric Acid, which at this point, would wind up being a icing on the cake. Of course the bad thing about getting close to the surface is the pressure. The pressure on the planet happens to be 92 times greater than the pressure on Earth. This would squish squash you to the size of a sixpence, but who cares when you always hated being so tall didn't you.

Needless to say, if you were to "magically" appear on the surface of the planet, you would instantly begin suffering an inhuman death of screaming, torture and excruciating pain...the Acid, mixed with lack of Oxygen, mixed with far-beyond-extreme heat, mixed with an immense amount of pressure strong enough to crush you to a pulp, and absolutely nothing around you but planetary death would be more than enough to send any "Emo" individual into being "normal" again.

So enjoy your suicide mission!

Major Features of the planet 'Venus' are pinapples & pear's grapes ...and banana's .....cantaloupe..peaches ......dragon fruit mountains craters gases and etc sounds like a big ball of sunshine...wait thats the SUN !!hahhaha

The gravity of Venus is about 90% of Earth's gravity. This means that if you weighed 100 pounds on Earth, you would weigh about 90 pounds on Venus. Venus has a slightly lower gravity due to its smaller mass compared to Earth.

The diameter of Venus is about 12103.6 kilometers or 7520.8 miles.

The very slow (clockwise) spin of the planet means that there is no appreciable equatorial "bulge" as is created on Earth and the other planets. The radius of the planet is relatively uniform at approximately 3760 miles.
