it’s a bird ? – it’s a plane ? – NOPE…
It’s VENUS the 2nd planet ! Our “twin” world shining at her brightest tonight ! Let me show you ……
Venus is named after the goddess of LOVE and BEAUTY – BUT that description could not be farther from the truth because VENUS truly is like HELL.
This world is covered with clouds – ALL COVERED with clouds – a runaway greenhouse gone terribly, terribly wrong. The temperature can reach 1000 degrees with atmospheric pressures that will crush cars and anything that even reaches the surface. We can’t see the surface due to the super thick poisonous clouds enshrouding the ENTIRE PLANET ! AND since it’s much closer to the SUN – it’s a lot hotter – the clouds trap almost ALL of the sun’s heat energy producing a scathing boiling HELL – trust me, you don’t want to vacation here.
Venus rotates OPPOSITE the Earth rotation – so the sun rises in the WEST and sets EAST – WOW ! Tonight June 6th to June 7th ,VENUS will be super bright and through a telescope you will see HALF the planet lit up! All that brilliant glow is only from one half the reflection off the clouds from sunlight ! A day on Venus is 116 earth days long – and it’s year is 225 days – so I am now 48 on Earth but if I lived on VENUS I’d be 78 !!!
I’d sure be older and wiser – If I could only stand the heat !!!
KEEP LOOKING UP !!
