Product Description
Venus has been known as the brighest object in the night sky since the beginning of recorded history. On clear nights, Venus is the first object to appear and is sometimes so luminous that its light casts very faint shadows on the ground on Earth. It has figured priminently in the mythologies of many cultures, including those of the Sumerians, Aztecs, Maya, and ancient Romans - the Romans named the planet after their goddess of love and beauty.
