Venus’s rotation is very slow, and the time it takes to rotate a circle is equivalent to 243 days (5832 hours) of the Earth. In contrast, Venus revolves around the sun faster, with an orbital speed of 35.02 km/s and an orbital period equivalent to 224.7 days (5392.8 hours) on Earth. Therefore, the day of Venus is even longer than a year.
