Venus Venus is the second planet from the Sun and is the second brightest object in the night sky after the Moon. Venus is the second largest terrestrial planet , The surface of the planet is concealed by an opaque layer of clouds made up of sulphuric acid. Venus is the hottest planet in our solar system: The average surface temperature is 462 °C, and because Venus does not tilt on its axis, there is no seasonal variation. The dense atmosphere of around 96.5 percent carbon dioxide traps heat and causes a greenhouse effect. A day on Venus lasts longer than an earth year Venus orbits rounds the in sun in 262 days. The earth takes 365 days to complete an orbit. So a year on Venus lasts for 262 days . Fact : Venus is named after the Roman goddess of love and beauty.

Earth and Venus only have a 638 km difference in diameter, Venus having 81.5% of the Earth’s mass. Both also have a central core, a molten mantle and a crust. Planet Profile : Mass: 4,867,320,000,000,000 billion kg (0.815 x Earth)Equatorial Diameter: 12,104 kmPolar Diameter: 12,104 kmEquatorial Circumference: 38,025 kmSurface Temperature: 462 °C • The atmosphere of Venus made up mainly of carbon dioxide. • The clouds create the most corrosive acid rain found anywhere in our solar system. • The surface of Venus is often described as a "stormy desert" full of many craters and very active volcanoes. • The surface is also related to molten lead. • Venus features no liquid water.
