Venus

Venus is the 2nd planet from our Sun and it is known as "The Evening Star", and "The Morning Star" because of the bright light the planet gives off. Venus is a Terrestrial Planet, or an Inner Planet.

Overview
Venus is the brightest planet in the Solar System. It is the 3rd brightest object in the night sky, after the Sun and Moon. It is so bright because it's magnitude is 3.8 to -4.6, which makes it visible on a clear day. Venus is also referred to Earth's Twin Sister, because Earth and Venus's Size and Mass is so similar. Venus has a thick layer of clouds that rain sulphuric acid. Venus's clouds don't only rain sulphuric acid but also trap heat inside too. The clouds on Venus makes it the hottest planet in the Solar System. Temperatures on Venus can reach up to 462 Celsius (863 Fahrenheit). Venus was named after The Roman God Of Love and Beauty. They call Venus this due to the brightness of the planet and may date back to the Babylonians in 1581 who referred to Venus as the "Bright Queen Of The Sky". Venus does not have any natural satellites due to the fact that Venus's Atmospheric Pressure is about 92 times stronger than Earth's (Which means any object flying into the planet will instantly be crushed), and if Venus was able to get a moon, it would probably melt from the insane temperatures. One Venus Day is longer than 1 Venus Year. It takes Venus about 243 Earth Days to rotate once on it's axis while One Year On Venus takes about 255 Earth Days. Venus is also the closest planet to Earth. From Earth, Venus is about 41 million miles away. Venus is also the only planet that spins the opposite way. All of the other planets in the Solar System spin right while Venus spins left. Venus is also the 2nd largest Inner Planet after Earth. Venus has over 1,600 volcanoes on its surface. The largest one being Theia Mons at a height of over 4 km, and it's lava range can cover an area of over 800 km wide. Theia Mons also has an oval shaped caldera roughly 75 km long.
