The National Center for Aeronautics and Space Administrationt or nasa nasa reveals True color image of Venus The planet that got the title of Earth's twin from it messenger (Messenger) A spacecraft was sent to explore Mercury again after several decades. Previously there was only Mariner 10 Just took pictures of Venus as it orbited around it. This is a picture of a creamy white planet that has become a memory of Venus since ancient times.
MESSENGER – MESSENGER, short for Mercury Surface, Space Environment, Geochemistry, and Ranging Probe, is a NASA spacecraft. It was launched from Earth in August 2003 with the goal of exploring the surface of Mercury. It is the first probe in decades to have been sent to explore Mercury; only Mariner 10 had previously visited the first planet in the Solar System. The mission ended in March 1975.
After being launched into space to travel to Mercury in 2003 by the Messenger spacecraft. The travel to Mercury took a long time of 6 and a half years, a total distance of 7,900 million kilometers. During the travel, the spacecraft orbited Venus and recorded and sent back true color images.
Venus It is the second planet from the sun, Venus orbits the sun very slowly and rotates slowly too. It takes 224.7 Earth days to orbit the sun and completes its orbit in 243 Earth days, but the length of the solar day is 117 Earth days for this reason Therefore, Venus is classified as the slowest rotating star in the solar system.
Venus also orbits inside the Earth's orbit. Therefore, when observed, it does not appear to be very far from the Sun. It can be seen early in the evening in the west, called the “City Star” or early in the morning in the east, called the “Morning Star” and is covered by a thick layer of clouds. This makes it impossible to see the surface.
