One of the most mysterious planets of our Solar system called Venus. This is the second Sun object and the closest to Earth among the big bodies. Venus, whose diameter is 95 % of the diameter of our planet, always on the move in the middle of the earth's orbit and can be between the Sun and Earth. It's incredibly mysterious space object that causes scientists to marvel at its beauty and singularity. About it you can tell a lot, and it will be very interesting for humans.Venus diameter

Venus in numbers

Venus, the diameter of which is 12 of 100 kilometers, is in many ways similar to Earth. Its surface is only ten percent less than the surface of our planet. In figures it looks so: 4,6*10^8 km2. Its volume is equal to 9,38*1011 km3, which is 85 % higher than the volume of our planet. The mass of Venus reaches 4,868*1024 kilograms. These figures are quite close to earth, so this planet is often called Earth's sister planet.

The Average temperature indicator of the surface of the mysterious planet is 462 degrees Celsius. At a temperature hot enough to melt lead. Venus (diameter of the object specified above) due to the specific composition of its atmosphere is unfit for habitation of any famous scientist life forms. Its atmospheric pressure is 92 times higher than earth's. The air is dusty with volcanic ash and floating clouds of sulphate acid. The average wind speed on Venus reaches up to 360 kilometers per hour.

On this planet incredibly hostile conditions. Built specifically for research there the probes did not survive more than a couple of hours. There is a lot of volcanoes like the dormant and active. On the surface of the planet there are over one thousand pieces.the distance from the sun to Venus

Travel-route Venus - Sun

The distance from the Sun to Venus for ordinary people seems insurmountable. After all, there are more than 108 million kilometers. One year on this planet lasts 224.7 earth days. But if we consider how long it takes one day here, then I remember the adage that time stretches forever. One Venusian day equal to 117 earth days. That's where all the things you can alter in one day! In the night sky Venus is considered the second brightness level of the body, the brighter it shines is the Moon.

The distance from the Sun to Venus – it's nothing compared to the distance Earth - Venus. If somebody wants to go to this object, he will have to fly 223 million kilometers.Venus and the sun

All about the atmosphere

The atmosphere of the planet Venus is 96.5 % carbon dioxide namelennogo. The second place belongs to nitrogen, it is approximately 3.5 %. The figure is five times higher than the earth. Lomonosov was a pioneer of the atmosphere on the described the planet.

On the Sixth of June 1761, the scientist watched as Venus passed across the solar disk. During the study he noticed that at the moment when a planet is a small part found on the disc of the Sun (it was the beginning of the whole passage), appeared thin, like hair, Shine. It was surrounded by part of the planetary disk that have not yet embarked on the Sun. When Venus went with the drive, there were something like that. Thus Lomonosov concluded that on Venus there is an atmosphere.

The planet's mysterious Atmosphere, except carbon dioxide and nitrogen, consists of water vapor and oxygen. These two substances there is a minimal amount, but still leave them unattended. The atmosphere of the facility included several space installations. The first successful attempt managed to make the Soviet station “Venus-3”.Venus

Hellish surface

Scientists say the surface of Venus-it's hell. As we mentioned, there is a huge number of volcanoes. More than 150 areas of the body formed by volcanoes. Therefore it may give the impression that Venus is more volcanic than Earth. But the surface of our cosmic body due to tectonic activities is constantly changing. And on Venus as a result of unknown causes plate tectonics stopped many billions of years ago. The surface is stable.

The Surface of this planet is strewn with a large number of meteorite craters whose diameter is 150-270 kilometres. Venus, the diameter of which is specified in the beginning of the article, on its surface has virtually no craters with less than a six-kilometer diameter. atmosphere of Venus

Rotate the opposite

The Fact that Venus and the Sun are far away from each other, we have already found. Also found that this planet revolves around this star. But that's just how she does it? The answer may surprise: on the contrary. Venus is a very slowly rotating in the opposite direction. The period of its revolution is slowing down regularly. Since the beginning of 90-ies of the last century it was 6.5 minutes to rotate more slowly. Scientists are unsure about why this is so. But according to one version it is explained by the fact that the weather conditions on the planet unstable. Because of them, not just a planet starts to rotate slower, butthe atmospheric layer becomes thicker.

The Hue of the planet

Venus and the Sun – two of the most interesting for researchers of the object. Interest is everything from the mass of bodies to their color. The mass of Venus we have established, now let's talk about its color. If it were possible to close to consider this planet, she would appear before the spectator in a bright white, or yellowish tone without any structures in the clouds.

And if I had a chance to fly over the surface of the object, people would consider endless expanses of brown rocks. Due to the fact that Venus is too dull clouds, to the surface comes a little light. All the images are dull and have bright red tones. In reality Venus has a bright white color.
