Why is Venus called Venus?

Venus is called Venus because in the early stage of scientific development, human beings have limited knowledge and don't know how to distinguish planets, so they are named according to Yin-Yang and Five Elements.

Why is Venus called Venus? Is it because it has gold on its surface?

Of course not. There is hardly any gold on Venus. The surface of Venus is lava, and the core is basically iron like the earth. The brightness of the night sky is second only to the moon, and Venus is the brightest before sunrise or after sunset. It appears in the eastern sky in the early morning and is called "Qi Ming". The west side of the sky at night is called "Changqing".

The main component of Venus' atmosphere is carbon dioxide, accounting for about 97%, with less oxygen and nitrogen, and less water vapor than 1%. This air composition is completely unsuitable for human survival. This is also the reason why the destination of human space immigrants chose Mars instead of Chen Xing. Oxygen and nitrogen account for more than 98% in the earth's air, and the air near the surface contains more water vapor.

Carbon dioxide accounts for only five parts per million in the air. Venus is golden and dazzling. Venus is called Venus because in the early stage of scientific development, human beings have limited knowledge and don't know how to distinguish planets, so they are named according to Yin-Yang and Five Elements.
