Venus is named after the Roman goddess of love and beauty. Venus rotates on it’s axis every 243 earth days. Venus’ mean radius is 3, ideo-topics/space- videos/space-school- venus.htm ideo-topics/space- videos/space-school- venus.htm

Venus is the brightest planet in the solar system. Bright due to it’s reflective clouds. Venus has no moons. Venus is mostly spherical and doesn’t bulge at the poles like most planets.

Venus is the hottest planet in the solar system because it’s dense atmosphere traps in heat. “Runway version of the greenhouse effect” Atmosphere contains Carbon dioxide. Space probes only lasted an hour because of the heat. Atmosphere rotates faster than Venus rotates itself.

The clouds go around the planet every four Earth days, propelled by hurricane force winds. Winds on surface are much slower than winds in the atmosphere. Temperature is 870 degrees Fahrenheit. Hot enough to melt lead. Escape velocity is 10,400 miles per second.

Venus’ surface pressure is 90 times more than Earth’s. Venus is extremely dry due to extreme heat. Surface is flat, smooth planes marred by thousands of volcanoes. Surface has few impact craters, indicating Venus’ youth. Lava flows create large canals over 300 thousand miles long.

Six mountainous regions that make up 1/3% of Venus’ surface. Maxwell mountains are 540 miles wide and 7 miles above the average surface area. They lie on the continent of Ishtar Terra, which is about the size of Australia. Crowns that are ring-like structures and are hot material beneath the crust that rises up. Tiles, which are raised areas in which ridges and valleys have formed.

Venus is the second planet from the sun. Is 67, 237, 910 miles from the sun. Venus rotates clockwise, which is opposite of the other planets. Venus takes 225 days to rotate the sun. Venus cannot generate magnetic fields like Earth. Venus is considered Earth’s twin, having only a 638km difference in diameter.

The clouds go around the planet every four Earth days, propelled by hurricane force winds. Clouds contain sulfuric acid. ‘Venus Express’ found evidence of lightning on Venus. 220 mile per hour winds. Scientists found traces of water on Venus. Hurricane force winds on Venus are growing stronger.

Most wildly explored planet in the solar system. ‘The Messenger’, which is ongoing right now, is circling Venus and Mercury. A past mission is the ‘Venus Express’. A future mission to Venus includes the ‘Bepicolumbo’, which is being sent out in Another future mission is the ‘Climate Orbiter’, which is being sent out again to Venus after a previous failure. dia/action/yt/watch?v=LYK9rbVpOcIhttp:// dia/action/yt/watch?v=LYK9rbVpOcI
