As seen from the Earth, the angle between Mercury and the Sun at greatest eastern or western elongation can be as large as 28° (when Mercury is near aphelion) or as small as 18° (near perihelion). By contrast, Venus follows a larger, nearly circular orbit with a 224.7-day period. The angle between Venus and the Sun at eastern or western elongation is 47°.. Dr.. Jade Carter-Bond.
