Venus
Venus
It is the second planet closest to the Sun and at the same time it is the hottest in the Solar System, although Mercury is closer to the Sun, Venus is so hot because of its high level of COtwo that causes a large-scale greenhouse affection.It is also known as the sister planet of Earth, since it is the closest to it, it is rocky, similar in size and mass and abundant atmosphere, but the essential difference is its opposite temperatures. He is also called as the morning star.It has the most circular orbit of any other planet, surpassing that of Neptune. Its atmospheric pressure is 94 times higher than that of the Earth, and due to its large and opaque atmosphere dispersed throughout its surface, it is not possible to observe its surface by means of visible light waves.Its rotation movement is retrograde (it turns backwards, the Sun rises in the west and is hidden in the east, unlike the Earth), like Uranus.Venus is one of the only 3 stars that can be seen during the day, in addition to the Moon and the Sun.Since Venus is volcanically active, it causes continuous eruptions which in some places maintain continuous lava flows.

Background:
Venus is the most known planet of mankind since prehistoric times because of its great visibility from Earth.
Venus has received numerous names throughout history: Baltis for the Syrians, Bennu for the Egyptians, Citlalpul for the Aztecs, Xulab, the Lord of the House of Dawn, for the Mayans and Dilbat in Assyria and Babylon. For the ancient Greeks, who did not know the sky as well as the Babylonians, Venus was 2 different stars, the Venus of the evening "Hesperos" and the one of the early morning "Phosphoros".
Pythagoras was the first Greek to distinguish that both objects were really only one, because when the evening star was in the sky, the morning was never seen. It was he who gave this planet that went from one side of the Sun to the name of Aphrodite, the Greek goddess of love and beauty.
Venus receives its name from the Roman goddess of love.
The Mayans created a religious calendar based on astronomical cycles.
