Venus: The Evening Star -- visible with Crescent Moon (July 18, 2015) and Jupiter

the Evening Star, share these half dozen cool facts about Venus (second planet in Solar System):
  • It's the shiniest planet in the universe. 
  • It's so reflective because it's covered with brilliant white clouds made of sulfuric acid droplets. 
  • Venus is [also] the slowest spinning body in the known universe. You can walk as fast as it rotates!
  • It's the hottest of all worlds. 
  • And it is the only one whose size closely matches our own beloved Earth.
