First Planet: Venus
"The rocky Planet of Venus is the second closest planet to the sun.
Unlike Mercury, Venus can be seen quite easily in the night sky. In fact, it is the brightest object in the sky after the sun and the moon!
Quick facts:
Distance from sun: 62.2 million miles
Surface temperature: 896+ F
Time to orbit sun: 224.7 days
Number of moons: 0"
Atmosphere is made of Carbon Dioxide.
Gravity is 100X the strength of Earth.

"The thick spinning clouds that make up the atmosphere of Venus trap in the sun's heat, making the surface of the planet scorching hot - so hot it can melt lead."
