Why does Venus appear so bright to our eyes?

it is much larger than either Mercury or Mars

it gets closer to us than does any other planet

All of the items listed helps us understand why Venus is so bright.

its sulfuric acid cloud cover reflects almost 60% of the sunlight

it lies closer to the Sun than we do, so sunlight is more intense there

Why does Venus appear so bright to our eyes?

Venus is so bright because its thick clouds reflect most of the sunlight that reaches it (about 70%) back into space, and because it is the closest planet to Earth. Venus can often be seen within a few hours after sunset or before sunrise as the brightest object in the sky (other than the moon).

it is much larger than either Mercury or Mars

Mars, the fourth planet from the sun, is the second smallest planet in the solar system; only Mercury is smaller.

it gets closer to us than does any other planet

In other words, Mercury is closer to Earth, on average, than Venus is because it orbits the Sun more closely. Further, Mercury is the closest neighbor, on average, to each of the other seven planets in the solar system.

Clouds. Venusian clouds are thick and are composed mainly (75–96%) of sulfuric acid droplets. These clouds obscure the surface of Venus from optical imaging, and reflect about 75% of the sunlight that falls on them. The geometric albedo, a common measure of reflectivity, is the highest of any planet in the Solar System

it lies closer to the Sun than we do, so sunlight is more intense there

When it is winter in the northern half of Earth, the southern hemisphere, tilted toward our Sun, has summer. During fall and spring, some locations on Earth experience similar, milder, condition.
