Venus
The Hottest Planet
🌍 Earth's Twin: Venus is almost the same size as Earth but is a completely different and much harsher world.
🔥 Hottest Planet: With temperatures around 465°C, Venus is the hottest planet in the Solar System—even hotter than Mercury!
☁️ Hidden World: Thick clouds of sulfuric acid permanently cover Venus, hiding its rocky surface from view.
🔄 Backward Rotation: Venus spins in the opposite direction, so the Sun rises in the west and sets in the east.
⏳ A Strange Day: One day on Venus lasts 243 Earth days, making it longer than its 225-day year.
🔬 Why Explore Venus? Studying Venus helps scientists understand climate change, greenhouse warming, and how rocky planets evolve.
