Life on Venus

The surface of Venus is not


where you'd like to be, with temperatures that can melt lead,
and its atmosphere is so thick
that it would crush you, and
clouds of sulfuric acid that smell
like rotten eggs this would be
the planet you are sent to to die.

Fun Facts

Venus is so bright it is sometimes mistaken for a UFO

Venus has no moons

to make a full rotation

Venus is similar to Earths interior


structure. What makes Venus one
of the most uninhabitable places
in our solar system is its volcanic
surface and its dense atmosphere.

Surface Temperature: 462 C


Rotation Period: 0.004 x faster
Solar Orbit Period: 1.63 x faster
Mean Dist. from Sun: 0.72 x Earth

Venus is on the brightest objects in


our night sky second to the moon. It
can be a evening or a morning star.

Thick clouds of sulfuric acid and


dust reflect most of the suns light

back to space, while carbon dioxide


traps the suns het inside the atmosphere causing a runaway greenhouse effect. The atmospheric pressure is about 90 times greater than
Earths.
