Planet

Venus is called the red planet ?

Answer #1

No, that is Mars.

Venus is the brightest

Susila is right.

Answer #2

No, that’s Mars. Due to the red ‘soil’ there it has a distinctly reddish tinge in the sky. (And that’s why it’s called Mars, from the Roman god of war - red being associated with war)

Venus is covered in heavy clouds, so it reflects a lot of light from the sun - that’s why it’s the brightest. But definitely not red.
