Venus

Venus

  • 1 Venusian year is 225 earth days.

  • One rotation is 243 earth days, the longest day of any planet in the solar system.

  • Temp: 890 degrees F or 477 degrees Celsius.

  • No moons.

  • Diameter: 7,520.8 mi (12,103.6 km).

  • Mass: 81.5% of Earth’s.

  • A 100-pound person would weigh 91 pounds on Venus.

  • The atmosphere is mainly carbon dioxide with clouds of sulfuric acid.  Both of these are greenhouse gases and cause the temperature on Venus to be higher than any other planet.

  • Venus orbits east to west.  Uranus is the only other planet to orbit in that direction.
