'''Venus''' is the second planet from the [[Sun]] in the [[Solar System|solar system]]. It is named after the [[Rome|Roman]] [[god]] [[Venus (god)|of the same name]]. It is covered in clouds of [[sulfuric acid]] and has an extremely thick atmosphere of [[carbon dioxide]], the thickest in the solar system. The resulting greenhouse effect gives it an extremely heavy pressure, 92 times that of its similarly-sized neighbour, [[Earth (planet)|Earth]]. | '''Venus''' is the second planet from the [[Sun]] in the [[Solar System|solar system]].
