Hey there Venutian Vagabonds, Vociferous vivacious
Trace here to point you in the direction of

 

our voluptuous neighbor planet, Venus.

 

Venus was named for the Roman goddess of Love
and Beauty -- similar to Aphrodite in Greece.

 

As it is closer to the sun than we are, Venus
will often appear in the morning before the

 

sun or just after it sets.

 

For this reason the ancient Greeks actually
had TWO names for this one planet - the Greeks

 

called it Phosphorus and Hesperus -- morning
star and evening star.

 

They finally realized it was just one planet
around 30 BCE!

 

Only the sun and moon are brighter in the
sky than Venus, which makes it easy to find!

 

Wake up early (around 5am, and Venus will
already be well above the horizon), shining

 

bright and pure.

 

What a stunner.

 

Get out there and share her story while you
Keep lookin up!
