1 Demetri Lowry Venus

2 Basic Facts about Venus Venus’ symbol looks like this: No one knows exactly who discovered Venus or when it was discovered. The name Venus, comes from the Roman Goddess of beauty.

3 Distances Order from the Sun: Second planet from the sun Distance from the Sun in Km: 108 million Km Distance from the Earth in Km: 40 million Km

4 Planet Measurements Mass:4.8673x10^24 kg Volume: 9.28415x10^11 kg Density: 5.243 g/cm^3 Float or Sink in water?: Venus would sink in water because it’s density is 5.243 which is greater than waters density of 1.2. Gravity: 8.87 m/s^2

5 Orbit and Rotation Venus takes about 7.5 Earth months to orbit the sun. It takes Venus about 8 months to rotate once on its axis. This means that a day on Venus is longer than a year on the planet.

6 Atmosphere The atmosphere of Venus is mostly made up of carbon dioxide. The atmosphere is extremely thick and also always cloudy. Plus, the pressure is 90 times greater than the pressure of Earth’s atmosphere.

7 Temperature ●The average temperature on Venus is 854 degrees fahrenheit ●Temperature is much hotter than on Earth ●Temperature on Venus is about 780 degrees fahrenheit more than in Florida

8 Composition Venus is a rocky planet, but it’s surface is a cratered and volcanic landscape. Internal composition: ●Has an iron core ●Has a mantle ●Similar to Earth’s interior ●Not many details are known about interior

9 Appearance On the surface of Venus there are smooth volcanic plains. There are two large continents, one the size of Australia and the other the size of Africa. Those areas are covered with canyons, trenches, and large mountains.

10 Weather ●Temperature stays at around 800 degrees farenheit day and night ●Suffocating acid clouds blanket the sky ●The atmosphere has 90 times more pressure than Earths atmosphere

11 Water Due to the greenhouse effect that trappes most of the heat on Venus, most of the water has evaporated and escaped into space.

12 If someone were to suddenly appear on the surface of Venus they would not last very long. The first thing that would happen is that they would be quickly crushed by the weight of Venus’ atmosphere, basicly they would be flattened into a thin strip of molecules. If say some how they were not affected by that then the next thing that would happen that they would literally be burned, or fried, to death by the emenous heat on the planet. Lastly if they were still somehow alive, the person’s lungs would collapse and they would not be able to breath clean air because of the poisonous toxins that Venus has to offer in it’s atmosphere. Humans on Venus
