How to read the visual

The diagram uses the recorded measurements. Details outside the marked spans do not set the scale.

  • We use 116.8 days for the solar day of a Venus solar day; the recorded range is 116.7 days–116.9 days.
  • The solar day of a Venus solar day: This is an estimate; check the notes for its rounding and uncertainty.

A duration is an interval, not a calendar date.
