Venus is the second planet from the Sun, and is Earth's closest neighbor in the solar system. Venus is the brightest object in the sky after the Sun and the Moon, and sometimes looks like a bright star in the morning or evening sky. The planet is a little smaller than Earth, and is similar to Earth inside.
Artist's conception of Venus Express. Image credit: ESA. The first spacecraft ever launched towards Venus was the Soviet Venera 1 spacecraft. It was launched on February 12, 1961 on course to Venus. Unfortunately, scientists lost contact with the spacecraft on February 17th.ission controllers didnât get a chance to put in a course correction that would have directed it closer to Venus, so itâs thought to have passed within 100,000 km of the planet on May 19th. Thatâs a total time of 97 days; just over 3 months. The first successful Venus flyby was NASAâs Mariner 2.
