Why does Venus have higher temperatures when mercury is closer to the sun?

Venus has a very thick atmosphere, made up mostly of carbon dioxide. Carbon dioxide, just like on Earth, is a greenhouse gas, meaning it traps the sun's heat. Venus can't release all the heat energy it absorbs from the sun back into space, causing the atmosphere and planet surface to heat up Mercury, on the other hand, has no atmosphere, and the side farthest from the sun is always exposed to the deep cold of space.

This allows the planet surface to bleed off the heat it absorbs.

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
