Why is Planet Venus So Hot? – We Asked a NASA Scientist
Why is Venus so hot?
The planet’s thick CO2-filled atmosphere is great at trapping heat. This creates a runaway greenhouse effect that makes Venus roughly 700°F (389°C) hotter than it would be otherwise. Planetary scientist, Dr. Amy Hofmann, at NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory provides all the sizzling details.
