Venus is known as the earth twin because it is similar in shape to the earth. Although, it is not the closest to the sun, it traps the suns heat in its atmosphere making it the hottest planet in the solar system. the temperature is as high as 465 degrees Celsius. Venus is known to be the second brightest body in the solar system, the moon being the first. A day in venus could be longer than a year on the earth. It revolves in the opposite direction around the sun compared to other planets. It has an atmospheric pressure which ninety times grater than what we have here on earth.
