In the astronomical literature, the term "closest planets" often refers to the two planets that approach each other the most closely. In other words, the orbits of the two planets approach each other most closely. However, this does not mean that the two planets are closest over time. Essentially because Mercury is closer to the Sun than Venus, Mercury spends more time in proximity to Earth; it could, therefore, be said that Mercury is the planet that is "closest to Earth when averaged over time". However, using this time-average definition of "closeness", it turns out that Mercury is the closest planet to <i>all</i> other planets in the solar system. For that reason, arguably, the proximity-definition is not particularly helpful. An episode of the BBC Radio 4 programme "More or Less" explains the different notions of proximity well.<sup id="cite_ref-MoreOrLess_171-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-MoreOrLess-171"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>168<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup></span> </li> <li id="cite_note-210"><span class="mw-cite-backlink"><b><a href="#cite_ref-210">^</a></b></span> <span class="reference-text">Several claims of transit observations made by mediaeval Islamic astronomers have been shown to be sunspots.<sup id="cite_ref-VaqueroVázquez2009_208-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-VaqueroVázquez2009-208"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>204<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> Avicenna did not record the date of his observation.

We find that Venus hosts far more volcanoes than previously mapped, and that although they are distributed across virtually the entire planet, size–frequency distribution analysis reveals a relative lack of edifices in the 20–100 km diameter range, which could be related to magma availability and eruption rate.</q></cite><span title="ctx_ver=Z39.88-2004&rft_val_fmt=info%3Aofi%2Ffmt%3Akev%3Amtx%3Ajournal&rft.genre=article&rft.jtitle=Journal+of+Geophysical+Research%3A+Planets&rft.atitle=A+Morphological+and+Spatial+Analysis+of+Volcanoes+on+Venus&rft.volume=128&rft.issue=4&rft.pages=e2023JE007753&rft.date=2023-04&rft_id=https%3A%2F%2Fapi.semanticscholar.org%2FCorpusID%3A257745255%23id-name%3DS2CID&rft_id=info%3Adoi%2F10.1029%2F2023JE007753&rft_id=info%3Abibcode%2F2023JGRE..12807753H&rft.aulast=Hahn&rft.aufirst=Rebecca+M.&rft.au=Byrne%2C+Paul+K.&rfr_id=info%3Asid%2Fen.wikipedia.org%3AVenus" class="Z3988"></span></span> </li> <li id="cite_note-Karttunen_et_al_2007-58"><span class="mw-cite-backlink"><b><a href="#cite_ref-Karttunen_et_al_2007_58-0">^</a></b></span> <span class="reference-text"><link rel="mw-deduplicated-inline-style" href="mw-data:TemplateStyles:r1238218222"><cite id="CITEREFKarttunenKrogerOjaPoutanen2007" class="citation book cs1">Karttunen, Hannu; Kroger, P.; Oja, H.; Poutanen, M.; Donner, K.
