Venus Is Shaped By Volcanoes

These planets evolved so differently, because of their space from the sun. Making Venus hotter than earth and causing changes to the

Venus. The Mayans gave great importance to the planet Venus; they recorded its transit across the sky and used this information to create the Dresden Codex which contains the data for the full circle of this planet. The Mayans counted five repetitions of the cycle of Venus, each one with a length of 584 days, which correspond to approximately 8 years. In the Mayan mythology, Venus is the companion of the sun. The observed that Venus is always close to the sun in the sky, rising before sunrise as morning star or after sunset as evening star. Venus was so important to the Mayans that they decided some of their wars based some positions of Venus and

The atmosphere is so dense that it is the equivalent of being under the sea at about half a mile. Venus also has one of the strongest greenhouse effect of any planet in the solar system due to the large presence of carbon dioxide and sulfur dioxide. Venus' suface is then hotter than Mercury's surface. There is not much variation of the temperature on Venus depending on day and night because there is thermal inertia. Another contributing factor to the climate is that winds are very low. The clouds are also capable of producing lightning. There also is an ozone layer in the atmosphere of

The atmospheric pressure is substantially more than that of Earth, totaling up to more than 90 times heavier than Earth’s. Closest to the surface of this planet is carbon dioxide, trapped in a thick layer against the surface. Over this layer are clouds of sulfuric acid, that reflect over 90% of the sunlight that hits the planet, and makes it very difficult for muggles to capture images of the surface. It is definitely one of the brightest objects in our night sky. The climate of this planet is a very heated one. It is the hottest planet in the Milky Way, even though Mercury is much closer to the Sun. One theory states that Venus, at one point, had a climate similar to that of Earth, but greenhouse gas effects impacted the climate permanently. Like Mercury, the temperature of this planet fluctuates greatly, going from -364 to 870 degrees

We have finally arrived at Venus! Did you know a day on Venus is the same as 116 days and 18 hours on Earth. Venus has the longest day in our solar system. Venus is thought to rotate so slowly, because of its dense atmosphere and high speed winds. Wind on Venus can go up to 450 miles per hour. My question is , “Does Venus take longer to orbit the sun because it rotates backwards?”, but scientist are also not sure why Venus rotates backwards.

The average surface temperature is 500 degrees Celsius. An important reason for this high temperature are the clouds on the planet. From a distance they look similar to the clouds on Earth, but instead of water the clouds on Venus are made up of carbon dioxide. By absorbing infra-red light this greenhouse gas keeps the planet hot. Since Venus is also tilted with 23,4 degrees (Earth only with 2,7 degrees), seasons don’t exist at Venus. Everywhere at every time of the year the planet has almost the same high temperature. It is believed that Venus once had a climate like Earth, but it is still unknown how and why the greenhouse effect took

Venus, named after the Roman goddess of beauty and love, is the brightest planet in the solar system. The surface of Venus cannot be seen with an ordinary telescope, as it is covered with water vapor and clouds of sulfuric acid. Although Mercury is closer to the sun, Venus is the hottest planet in the solar system at a whopping 460 degrees Celsius on average. The radiation of the sun heats the surface, but the heat cannot escape due to the carbon dioxide and methane-filled atmosphere, which produces the greenhouse effect. Sadly, there could never be life on Venus due to this blistering heat (exterior).

For my vacation, my family has chosen to go to Venus. This our first year traveling outside of earth so we chose a planet close. Venus is covered with a thick layer of sulfuric acid which will be a blast to land into but on the inside Venus is solid. Venus shines super bright and has orangish yellow tint. The overall look of Venus is dreary and the gas covers the area with a goldish hue and everything looks like gunmetal. Venus is VERY hot, it temperature reaches to about 870 degrees Fahrenheit! On top of the scorching heat the Atmospheric pressure is bone crushing and highly dense.Venus is about 0.72 light years away from the Sun and blank light years from Earth. Venus is very much like earth and not very much like earth. Venus is about the same size as earth

Venus, being named after the Roman goddess of beauty and love has many similarities to Earth. However being that the planets surface is covered by volcanic planes is very interesting. Being our "sister" planet Venus is believed to have had large reserves of water, however they no longer remain. Venus is the third brightest object in our sky, right after the Sun and our Moon. Considering 80% of its surface is is volcanic plains, as mentioned before, most of those volcanoes are inactive now. It is said however that Venus shows signs of once having intense volcanic action. Venus would be a fun place to explore if its climate was still similar to ours. Runaway greenhouses gas effects permanently impacted the climate of Venus and now the temperatures

Venus' atmosphere is approximately 96.5% carbon dioxide and 3.5% nitrogen, with traces of elements and compounds such as carbon monoxide and helium. Its atmospheric pressure, therefore, is 90 times heavier than that of Earth's. Near the surface of Venus is a thick layer of carbon dioxide, and above that are layers of clouds of sulfuric acid. These clouds of sulfuric acid are highly reflective and reflect more than 90% of the sunlight that hits Venus, and this means that Venus is one of the brightest objects in the sky, behind the Sun and the Moon. These clouds, and Venus' atmosphere have also contributed to a 'runaway greenhouse effect' on Venus, causing its climate to be permanently changed. Theories suggest that Venus once had a climate similar

There are 3 planets Mars, Venus, and Mercury that are closest to being Earth-like and are called Terrestrial planets. Mars today is not a habitable planet for humans to make a living on but is told by scientist and astronomers that on a day in the future it may be. The future for Mars would be dependent heavily on local Red Planet Resources, such near surface water and glaciers. Evidence starting in the 21st Century have evidence building that liquid water may be flowing through seasonally at some of the Martian sites, which could prove life up there as all others predicted. So until further more test is done yearly; Mars, for now, is not yet habitable but may become one soon yet to be known. Switching to Venus, the planet that is most Earth-like. Astronomers believe that Venus may have been a habitable planet once is the past (about 2 billion in our Solar Systems history). This prediction came from the founding of Venus having a crushed Carbon Dioxide atmosphere that is 90 times thicker than our Earth’s, and there is also no water vapor. But there has been a discovery that Venus had a shallow liquid state water ocean. Recent studies have shown that the speed of a planet's orbit can determine if a planet is habitable. Venus, in this case, was to have a slow orbit rate since it had the thickest atmosphere. Astronomers in the past have recorded that Venus had more dryland in the past than Earth does

Although, Venus is considered by many to be the twin to our planet, Earth, it’s almost impossible for that to be determined, there is much we don’t know about the planet, but what we do know, the information points to the fact that it’s not. There is no prefect day on Venus, first, because it is surrounded by dense layers of clouds that are forty miles thick. Venus does reflect about eighty percent of the Sun’s radiation, however, the carbon dioxide which is about ninety- five percent of the atmosphere traps in heat which practically bakes the

The atmosphere of Venus is incredibly dense and comprised mostly of carbon dioxide, a little nitrogen and some trace gases (sulphur dioxide, argon, water vapour, carbon monoxide, helium and neon). These trace gases add up to less than 0.1% of the entire atmosphere. Despite nitrogen making up only 3.5% of the atmosphere, there is four times as much of it as there is on Earth, despite it making up 78% of the atmosphere here.

This short story All summer in a day is about this girl whose family moved to Venus from Earth that the sun only comes out every 7 years. Venus is 261 million kilometers and when you translate it to mile it is 162177881.174 and to you is that far from Earth and Venus is made of up of a central iron core and a rocky mantle, similar to the composition of Earth. Its atmosphere is mainly made up of carbon dioxide (96%) and nitrogen (3%), with small amounts of other gases.

The atmosphere of Venus made up of 98% carbon dioxide and 2% Nitrogen. This atmosphere also has the presence of helium, neon and argon. This is yet another thing which makes Venus different from Earth.
