   Venus orbits the Sun at an average distance of about 0.72 AU (108,000,000 km/67,000,000 mi) with almost no eccentricity. In fact, with its farthest orbit (aphelion) of 0.728 AU (108,939,000 km) and closest orbit (perihelion) of 0.718 AU (107,477,000 km), it has the most circular orbit of any planet in the Solar System. The planet’s orbital period i...

   While a year on Venus lasts the equivalent of 224.65 Earth days, it only lasts the equivalent 1.92 days on Venus. This is due to the fact that Venus rotates quick slowly and in the opposite direction of its orbit. Because of this, a Solar Day – the time it takes for the Sun to rise, set, and return to the same place in the sky – takes 116.75 Earth ...

   Because of its dense atmosphere and its highly circular rotation, Venus experiences very little in the way of temperature variations during the course of a year. Similarly, its axial tilt of 2.64° (compared to Earth’s 23.44°) is the second-lowest in the Solar System, behind Mercury’s extremely low tilt of 0.03. This means that there is virtually no...

   Earth's nearness to Venus is a matter of perspective. The planet is nearly as big around as Earth. Its diameter at its equator is about 7,521 miles (12,104 kilometers), versus 7,926 miles (12,756 kilometers) for Earth. From Earth, Venus is the brightest object in the night sky after our own Moon.

   Oct 24, 2024 · Since Mercury orbits closest to the sun, it is also the fastest planet. A year on Mercury is only 88 days long, or just over two months of Earth time. Venus is the second closest planet to the sun and thus has the second shortest year. It takes Venus 225 days to orbit the sun, which isn’t too much shorter than Earth’s 365 days.

   Nov 8, 2024 · It takes about 243 Earth days to spin around just once. Because it's so close to the Sun, a year goes by fast. It takes 225 Earth days for Venus to go all the way around the Sun. That means that a day on Venus is a little longer than a year on Venus. Since the day and year lengths are similar, one day on Venus is not like a day on Earth.

   How long is a year on Venus?

   • The planet orbits the Sun faster than Earth, however, so one year on Venus takes only about 225 Earth days, making a Venusian day longer than its year! Venus has a solid surface covered in dome-like volcanoes, rifts, and mountains, with expansive volcanic plains and vast, ridged plateaus.

   How long is a solar day on Venus?

   • This is due to the fact that Venus rotates quick slowly and in the opposite direction of its orbit. Because of this, a Solar Day – the time it takes for the Sun to rise, set, and return to the same place in the sky – takes 116.75 Earth days. This means, in effect, that a single day on Venus lasts over half a year.

   How long does it take Venus to orbit the Sun?

   • It takes Venus 225 days to orbit the sun, which isn’t too much shorter than Earth’s 365 days. Mars is the outermost of the rocky planets, and so it takes the longest amount of time to orbit the sun in the inner solar system. It takes Mars 687 days to orbit the sun, nearly twice as long as Earth’s year.

   How often does the sun rise on Venus?

   • But on Venus, the Sun rises every 117 Earth days. That means the Sun rises two times during each year on Venus, even though it is still the same day on Venus! And because Venus rotates backwards, the Sun rises in the west and sets in the east. Just like Mercury, Venus doesn't have any moons. Venus is the hottest planet in our solar system.
