Venus Day vs Year

Day vs Year

One Sidereal Day 243 Earth Days
One Orbital Year 225 Earth Days
Venus rotates so slowly that it completes an entire trip around the Sun before it finishes a single spin on its own axis. Because it spins "backwards," the time from one sunrise to the next (Solar Day) is actually 117 Earth days.

Day vs Year

A Temporal Paradox. Venus spins so slowly that its sidereal day outlasts its orbital year. Time here is defined by a backward sunrise.

  • 🔄 Rotation: 243 Earth days (Backward/Retrograde).
  • ☀️ Solar Day: 117 Earth days from sunrise to sunrise.
  • 📅 The Year: 225 Earth days to circle the Sun.

SIDEREAL DAY

Venus takes **243 Earth days** to complete one rotation, making it the slowest spinner in the system.

ROTATION DATA
Rotation: 243 Days

ORBITAL YEAR

A year on Venus (one orbit around the Sun) lasts **225 Earth days**, shorter than its sidereal day.

ORBITAL STATS
Orbit: 225 Days

SOLAR DAY (DIURNAL)

Due to the combination of rotation and orbit, the Sun rises every **117 Earth days**.

DAY/NIGHT CYCLE
Solar Cycle: 117 Days

The Morning Star

Venus: The hottest planet in our solar system due to runaway greenhouse effects.
