It just seems like 243.0226 days.
Now I’m jealous. I guess it’s just a case of Venus envy.
She’s got it!

Saaayyyyy whaaaat?!?
I know it is pretty hot and the a/c bills must be huge...
Venus sounds like an excellent place to start transferring any and all Socialists, Communists and members of the DemoRat party.
singing “Disco Inferno”.
They’re putting the disco in discovery!
Is George Adamski still around to ask? He claimed to have talked to people from Venus back in the 1950s.
I read his book back then.

Venus probably could be “terraformed”, maybe over some great period of time, IF a way could be found to reduce the CO2 content of the atmosphere closer to the rate on earth, and IF done by splitting CO2 into into Carbon and Oxygen without generating an amount of Carbon Monoxide nearly equal to the CO2 lost. (Otherwise you just get an atmospheric change from a ton of CO2 to a ton of CO. Most known processes for splitting Carbon Monoxide don’t create carbon and Oxygen, they create CO2 and Oxygen).
If that could be done (not with available human knowledge and means) the massive volume and atmospheric pressure of Venus could also be reduced, and as you can see by the explanation of Venus in the article, such a change in Venus atmosphere could impact other aspects of Venus, including its rate of spin on its axis.
For instance, it has a gravity near to Earth’s, but its massive atmosphere (CO2 is so much heavier than Oxygen and Nitrogen) against it’s land surface that the atmosphere is likely a factor in it’s different spin rate compared to Earth’s. If Venus core is metal, a change in it’s spin rate would likely affect what magnetic field it would generate. A greater magnetic field would lower the rate energetic particles (gama and UV rayes) from the sun reach the surface. That would likely affect the survival rate of any life on the surface.
Maybe humans 1,000 years from now might be able to conduct a 100 year job on that experiment.
