Terrestrial Planets
It is famous that the 4 planets nearest to Sun are all Terrestrial planets.
According to “The Terrestrial Planets” by NASA, it is mentioned that terrestrial planets are planets that have a “compact, rocky surface like Earth’s terra firma”.
Although, even though both are terrestrial, Venus has a toxic atmosphere filled with carbon dioxide, which makes difference from Earth and makes scientists not wanting to afford living on that planet.

Although it is in a form of steam, Venus has water in its planet.
The reason why the water always being steam is assumed that because the planet’s temperature from -167°C – 464°C, which we can notice that it is much hotter in the planet of Venus.
