The planet Venus has been called "Earth's evil twin." It spins "backwards" compared to most planets in our solar system, it's hot enough melt lead, and yet it's the destination for two upcoming NASA missions. The facts about Venus you'll learn in this episode of The List Show cover interesting science, unbelievable history, and even some art. These Venus facts will hopefully have you appreciating the Morning Star (and understanding that erroneous nickname) a little bit. In case you forgot, The List Show is a trivia-tastic, fact-filled show for curious people.
