Venus

Special

Venus shines brightly and visible to the naked eye in Northern Borders

Dr. Abouazza El-Mhamdi: If you have noticed a brilliant star shining in the evening or morning sky these days, you are looking at Venus, our neighboring planet, putting on its finest display
El-Mhamdi: Often called Earth’s sister for its similar size, Venus shines so brightly because its thick cloud cover reflects over 70 percent of sunlight
