Structure
Venus is in many ways similar to earth in its structure.
It has an iron core that is approximately 2,000 miles (3,200 kilometers) in radius. Above that is a mantle made of hot rock slowly churning due to the planet's interior heat.
The surface is a thin crust of rock that bulges and...

Like its fellow terrestrial planets, Venus has a central core, a rocky mantle and a solid crust.
