Video - Mind-Blowing Planet Facts: Venus' Heat, Neptune's Winds & More!
Did you know that Venus is so hot it could melt lead? Its surface temperature is around 900 degrees Fahrenheit! And get this, a day on Venus is longer than its year. It takes Venus about 243 Earth days to rotate once, but only 225 Earth days to orbit the Sun. Speaking of weird, Neptune has supersonic winds that can reach up to 1,200 miles per hour. That’s faster than the speed of sound! And here’s a fun one: Jupiter has a moon named Io that’s the most volcanically active body in the solar system. It’s basically a giant cosmic pizza oven! And did you know that Saturn could float in water if you could find a big enough pool? It’s the only planet in our solar system that’s less dense than water. How about that for some cosmic trivia?
