Space is dramatically huge that you cannot even visualize how huge it is. In our solar system, can we find a planet that supports life? Can living things survive there? However, Scientists have found a planet in the solar system that is similar to planet Earth in some things and it is called planet Venus. Venus is usually called the “Sister of the Earth” or “twin sister” because of the similarities that Venus has to Earth. Technically, there are some similarities and differences between both planets that will be compared and contrasted.
The first major difference is their temperature and atmosphere. The temperature in both planets is dramatically different. Planet earth’s atmosphere is about 100 degrees which can support life on its surface. Earth’s atmosphere contents mostly of Nitrogen which is equivalents to 78%, Oxygen about 20%, and argon. These can keep humans and every other organism alive. On the other hand, planet Venus’s temperature is too thermal compared to Earth’s temperature. Therefore, Planet Venus’s atmosphere can destroy a human’s body with ease because of i...

  • Birth Of Venus Compare And Contrast Essay

    479 Words  | 1 Pages

    Although, both the Aphrodite of Knidos and the Birth of Venus have like traits such as nude female body, contrapposto stance, and iconography, they also can be easily contrasted by period of creation, technique, and artist. The human body has always been a popular choice among artists, but it seems the nude female body is quite controversial. The Aphrodite of Knidos, sculpted by Praxiteles about 350 – 340 B.C., or during the Greek Late Classical period, was a nude female modestly covering her genitalia. The Aphrodite was what made the small island of Knidos known to people around the world. Some 1,000 years later, the Birth of Venus arrived. Artist Sandro Botticelli, during the Italian Renaissance (ca. 1482,) defied odds with a similar interpretation of the Aphrodite despite stricter views on nude women. Both pieces share similar traits, yet can be easily identifiable apart from each other.

  • Venus Cupid Folly And Time Analysis

    1736 Words  | 4 Pages

    Peter Taylor’s short story Venus, Cupid, Folly and Time tells the tale of an odd brother-sister duo, Alfred and Louisa Dorset, who reside in the small, presumably southern, town of Mero. From the very beginning, readers are led to believe that the Dorsets are more than just brother and sister – they are lovers. Several occurrences throughout the story hint at a depraved relationship, however the story offers no firm confirmation of an incestuous relationship actually occurring. Despite their peculiarities, Mr. and Miss Dorset seem to have a great deal of influence on the social traditions of the town, the most important one being the annual party they host for the young children in the community. These parties are exclusive events that

    Have you ever looked up into the night skies and wondered what might be out there? One question I always wonder is where in the universe might there be a livable planet? Well the answer might be closer than you think, well actually 588 million kilometers away from earth. Jupiter of course is what I’m talking about. Fell first let’s ask the why we might move. Let’s face it earth is not going to be able to be habitable forever in fact ate the rate humans are polluting the atmosphere earth won’t be around that much longer. So might need a new place to live. So could the answer be Jupiter? Before that we need to know a little about the new planet and if it’s able to sustain life. Let’s start with the Jupiter’s history. Jupiter is the largest planet in the solar system. Jupiter was named after the king of the gods and Roman mythology. The ancient Greeks named the planet after Zeus, the king of the Greek pantheon. In 1610, a man that goes by the name “Galileo Galilei” was looking through his homemade telescope when he came across Jupiter. He notice four objects circling Jupiter and described them as "four fixed stars, totally invisible by their smallness" it was there were he discovered four large moons Io, Europa, Ganymede and Callisto, which underwent several name change but are now known as the Galilean moons. This was the first time celestial bodies were seen circling an object other then Earth. Jupiter spins faster than any other planet, taking 10 hours to complete a turn on its axis, compared to that of 24 hours for Earth. This rapid spin makes Jupiter bulge at the equator and flatten at the poles, making the planet about 7 percent wider at the equator than at the poles. This is Jupiter and this is Jupiter next to the earth. Jup...

  • Life on Europa

    601 Words  | 2 Pages

    It is without a doubt that the most fascinating thing about space is the possibility of life elsewhere beside Earth. It is estimated that the Milky Way Galaxy itself contains about 300 billion stars. Each star contains planets and some planets might even have moons. With these findings, the question is no longer whether life exists elsewhere. The probability that Earth is the only place where life exists in the universe is far too slim. NASA has identified many planets that have similar conditions to Earth but most of these planets are hundreds of light years away so traveling there to find out if there’s any living organism is not easy. Luckily, scientific evidences have pointed out that one of the moons of Jupiter, Europa, could be one of the places where life can exist. If the theories proposed by astronomers about Europa are true, life on Europa might not even be entirely different than life near the bottom of Earth’s oceans.

  • Venus Of Willendorf Vs Venus De Milo Essay

    873 Words  | 2 Pages

    This is probably a culture difference or a time difference since the Venus of Willendorf was created in 28,000-25,000 BCE and the Venus de Milo was created 130-100 BC and is a form of a Hellenistic style. Another difference is the fact that the Venus of Willendorf is not wearing any form of clothing and is totally exposed. The Venus de Milo has her bottom half covered with a sheet hiding her lower body and lower reproductive organs which contrasts the Venus of Willendorf and her enlarged lower organs. A similarity that these two pieces of art work have is the fact that they are both missing a body part. The Venus of Willendorf does not have arms or feet while the Venus de Milo is missing her arms. Another similarity is the fact that they were both Venus’ and created in BCE. Although they are both Venus’, they represent different forms of beauty. The Venus of Willendorf emphasizes the beauty of reproduction and sex, while the Venus de Milo emphasizes the beauty of strength and having a nice elegant

  • Ways Of Seeing Venus And Cupid

    854 Words  | 2 Pages

    People use art to display the beauty found in the world and, because of this, women have been subject to objection through paintings and photography all throughout history. Whether it is a commissioned oil painting from the 17th century or an advertisement from the 20th century, there will always be some type of image that objectifies women. In the book Ways of Seeing John Berger states that a woman “comes to consider the surveyor and surveyed within her as the two constituent yet always distinct elements of her identity as a woman,” (Ways of Seeing 46). Berger is saying that women know they are seen as an object purely because they are women. Women in paintings and photography are objectified for the pleasure of the viewer, they are illustrated for the surveyor’s specifications, so in essence the picture is a better representation of the owner than the subject.
