The planetary surface of Venus is the hottest in the solar system: the temperature averages 870 degrees F.
Detailed explanation-2: -Venus’ thick atmosphere traps heat creating a runaway greenhouse effect – making it the hottest planet in our solar system with surface temperatures hot enough to melt lead.
Detailed explanation-3: -Furthermore, the inner planets are warmer than outer planets simply due to the fact that they are closer to the Sun.
