>why isn't venus a thriving jungle then?
You need help.
I will reduce this to a simple image that even an 85IQ retard like you can understand.
This is the Earth, Sun and Moon, to scale
Venus is about 1/3 closer to the sun than we are.
If you do not understand how this works, then go in your kitchen and turn on a burner to maximum.
Hold your hand 3 feet away.
Now two feet.
Now 6 inches.
You can pull your hand away when it starts to smoke.
End of lesson.
