Venus outshines every object in the sky besides the sun and Moon. Its atmosphere consists of high quantities of sulphuric acid. Venus is almost the same in size as the Earth but has little in common. The surface temperature is about 500 degrees Celecius and the atmospheric pressure is about 90 times more dense than that of Earth's.
