Transcript Venus

About
The second planet from the Sun in the Earth's solar
system. Venus has been know for millions of years. The
planet Venus has long been one of the most of all the inner
planets. Like the Earth, Venus has an atmosphere. However,
Venus' atmosphere is thicker than that of the Earth, making
it difficult for science to understand. Scientists have been able
to peek through the thick clouds and get a few looks of the
surface. There are volcanoes and many mountains that appear.
Some been known since billons of years.
Geography
 Venus has many, many volcanoes. We don't know for sure, but
it is possible that Venous has more volcanoes than any of the
other planets in our Solar System. But the volcanoes on Earth
that can sometimes erupt in an wired manner, the volcanoes
on Venus are believed to erupt in a less way. In fact, it is
believed that they don't erupt at all. Instead, it is thought that
the lava just slowly flows out onto the surface.
Venus
 If you somehow found a way to survive heat found on the
surface of Venus, you would quickly notice something strange
about the days. Aside from the fact that Venus rotates very
slowly so that a day on Venus lasts more than 100 Earth days,
Venus also rotates in the opposite direction as almost all the
other planets.
Facts
 The brightest of all planets is Venus, is also known as the morning star and the
evening star. This planet is about the same size as Earth but is covered with
clouds of carbon dioxide and compounds. Radar mapping of the planet shows
lots of craters and that 90% of the landforms are volcanic. Venus spins slowly
backwards west to east in 243 days and takes about 225 days to orbit the sun.
This makes the daytime about 115 days which can raise surface temperatures up
to 464° C.
Fact
 In about a month’s time our moon appears to change shape
called phases. In 1610 Galileo observed phases and size
changes of Venus similar to our natural satellite. His discovery
of this and Jupiter’s moons led to a dramatic paradigm shift
(way of thinking) from an Earth-centered system to a Suncentered view. The world was no longer fixed in place and
the gods no longer ruled.
