Illustration of Venus. Venus is the second planet from the Sun and is similar in size to Earth. It is surrounded by a thick atmosphere rich in carbon dioxide, producing a strong greenhouse effect that makes it the hottest planet in the Solar System. Venus orbits the Sun at an average distance of around 108 million kilometres and is often called Earth's sister planet due to its similar size and composition.
