Venus’ atmosphere is almost 100 percent carbon dioxide (on Earth it’s practically a trace element, approximately .041% but was several times higher during the age of the dinosaurs). Shouldn’t be at all surprising that the atmosphere of a planet outside our solar system contains it as well.
It’s everywhere you want to be...........................
This is very interesting. I hadn’t really thought about the composition of Venus’ atmosphere being so much carbon dioxide. I thought it was mostly nitrogen and sulfur. The presence of carbon dioxide in Venus’ atmosphere in such proportion is why we have global warming fear on Earth. They look at how hot it is and worry that Earth is going to go the same way. The reasoning is a real stretch because there is a trace amount of water in the atmosphere in the Sahara and we don’t think people will drown there from it.
