  • Venus: The Inner Planet with the Slowest Rotation & Longest Day
    The inner planet with the shortest day is Venus.

    Here's why:

    * Venus rotates incredibly slowly, taking about 243 Earth days to complete one rotation. This is longer than its orbital period around the Sun, which is 225 Earth days. So, a day on Venus is actually longer than its year!

    * Mercury has a rotation period of 59 Earth days.

    * Earth has a rotation period of 24 hours.

    * Mars has a rotation period of 24.6 hours.

    Let me know if you have any other questions about the planets!
