Can things burn on Venus?

The atmosphere of Venus is very hot and thick. You would not survive a visit to the surface of the planet – you couldn’t breathe the air, you would be crushed by the enormous weight of the atmosphere, and you would burn up in surface temperatures high enough to melt lead.

Does Earth or Venus have more oxygen?

Note that the amount of nitrogen in Venus’s atmosphere is a little larger than in Earth’s atmosphere, but the amount of oxygen is much less and the amount of carbon dioxide is much more. Also, if you count the oceans on Earth, Venus has a lot less water than Earth.

What if Venus and Earth switched places?

If Earth and Venus switched places, not much will happen, both planets won’t change drastically. Let’s talk about Earth. Venus’s orbit is right on the edge of the red zone close to the habitable zone. If Earth were to be shifted into that orbit, the temperature would rise by at least 15 C.

What would happen to the world if there was no photosynthesis?

Answer 1: Vegans would die! Without photosynthesis there would be no supply of oxygen and slowly the oxygen would get used up by oxidation such as rust formation. Furthermore, by removing plants, all of the many many animals that depend on plants would get very very hungry and gradually die.

What would happen if all plants were removed from the Earth?

If all plants were to be removed from the surface of Earth There will be excess of carbon dioxide cause there are no plants to convert it into oxygen. Many other phenomena that depend upon plants will vanish and existence of human or any other living being on the planet will be in danger of extinction or will extinct.

Can we predict the color of plants on other planets?

NASA scientists believe they have found a way to predict the color of plants on planets in other solar systems. Green, yellow or even red-dominant plants may live on extra-solar planets, according to scientists whose two scientific papers appear in the March issue of the journal, Astrobiology.

Why study life on other planets around other stars?

“This work broadens our understanding of how life may be detected on Earth-like planets around other stars, while simultaneously improving our understanding of life on Earth,” said Carl Pilcher, director of the NAI at NASA Ames. “This approach — studying Earth life to guide our search for life on other worlds — is the essence of astrobiology.”
