• Once upon a time, there was a curious star.
  She always wondered about Venus.

4

• One day she asked the moon to tell her about
  Venus.
• The moon said, Well, Venus is the third planet
  from the sun. It has very poisonous gases. We
  also know that there is no life on Venus.

• WOW! I never knew that! How long does it take
  to orbit the sun? the star questioned.
• It takes Venus 224 Earth days to make a
  complete orbit. It is exactly 108.2 million
  kilometers from the sun.

• The star replied, Now I know about Venus. Can
  you tell me more?
• Well, sure, replied the moon. The
  atmosphere of Venus contains about 96 carbon
  dioxide. Venuss surface age is about the age of
  300 million to 500 million years!

• Wow! No way! Thats pretty old. Now I can
  go to star school and tell my class all I know
  about Venus. My teacher will be so impressed.
• I have a science report next week, I think I
  will do it on Venus. Thank You moon, she
  exclaimed.
• Anytime., replied the moon.
