About Solar system
The Solar system refers to the 8 planets, hundreds of moons, and billions of asteroids and comets other celestial bodies orbiting the star Sol. Sol is the name of our sun.
About Uranus
Uranus is the third largest planet in our solar system and is the seventh planet from the sun. Uranus appears blue due to absorption of red light by methane in the upper atmosphere.
About Venus
Venus is the second planet from the sun, and considered to be Earth's sister planet because it has a similar mass, and composition to Earth. Venus is covered by a thick atmosphere of sulfuric acid so thick that visible light barely penetrates it. It is extremely hot, up to 860 degrees Fahrenheit on the surface of Venus and made hotter by the immense atmospheric pressure, nearly 92 times as the pressure on Earth's surface.
