Day vs Year
A Temporal Paradox. Venus spins so slowly that its sidereal day outlasts its orbital year. Time here is defined by a backward sunrise.
- 🔄 Rotation: 243 Earth days (Backward/Retrograde).
- ☀️ Solar Day: 117 Earth days from sunrise to sunrise.
- 📅 The Year: 225 Earth days to circle the Sun.

SIDEREAL DAY
Venus takes **243 Earth days** to complete one rotation, making it the slowest spinner in the system.
ROTATION DATAORBITAL YEAR
A year on Venus (one orbit around the Sun) lasts **225 Earth days**, shorter than its sidereal day.
ORBITAL STATSSOLAR DAY (DIURNAL)
Due to the combination of rotation and orbit, the Sun rises every **117 Earth days**.
