Topic > The Planet Venus and Its Relationship to Earth - 978

My research paper will be a compilation of information I have gathered about the planet Venus and its relationship to Earth. I will look at some of the background of the creation of the solar system why Venus is present in it. Let's talk about some characteristics of the planet Venus and its atmosphere. Next you will show some of the explorations of Venus. There are several theories about how our solar system was created. But the widely accepted one is called the Nebular Hypothesis, first introduced by Emanuel Swedenborg and later further elaborated by Immanuel Kant and Pierre Simon De Laplace in 1700. Their hypothesis says that our solar system formed about 50 billion years ago by a giant rotating cloud called the Nebula. The huge cloud was filled with gases such as hydrogen and helium, as well as some dust particles. As the cloud continued to rotate under the influence of gravity, the core began to rotate faster and became denser and hotter. As it rotated, denser materials began to sink toward the core while lighter material moved away from the core, flattening the cloud. With this the nucleus began to acquire enough energy to produce nuclear fusion. Thus a first version of our sun was formed. With heavier material near the Sun and lighter material far from it, similar material began to clump together and form large rocks that would eventually form the planets and our Solar System today. With the lighter material further away forming cold gas giants called Jovian planets and the heavier materials closer forming rocky terrestrial planets. Among these terrestrial planets was Venus. The planet Venus, the only planet named after a woman, is named after the Roman goddess for her beauty in the sky. It is common that all the p...... half of the paper ......and brilliance of the plant's light in the sky next to the Sun and Moon and has been given the name Morning and Evening Star. An astronomer named Galileo Galilei was one of the first people to observe the phases of Venus. He also made some observations about Venus's changes in the size of Venus's visible diameter when it was in different phases. Over time we began sending satellites and telescopes to Earth which continued to gather more and more information about the other planets in our solar system. In 1962, NASA sent Mariner 2 to Venus for its first close encounter with a planetarium. The data collected showed the climate and the revolution on its axis. Landers and probes subsequently observed the planet's terrain and atmosphere. As time passes and technology advances, we will continue to learn new and exciting information about our sister planet Venus.
