text: The author of this article supports the idea that studying Venus is a worthy pursuit despite the dangers by stating the insight to be gained from further exploring Venus and by presenting new methods that are making new insights possible. The danger of Venus is extensive due to the high temperatures, extreme atmospheric pressure, and wild weather patterns. These obstacles are being dealt with though by new ideas from scientists at NASA. One big idea from NASA is the idea to use a blimp to observe Venus from above the surface. Another idea of theirs is to use materials that would be able to withstand the extreme conditions of the Venusian environment. All this is in the hopes that futher insight will be made on the planet that once was the most Earth-like planet in the solar system.I would like to say i think this policy is uncalled for, and i think students should be able to play in sports or other activities if they have a c or better. I mean it's not like their failing or anything. But on the other side of the story students should be able to get c or better and not get a d or f. I could see that students should past every class with a c or better. If students don't have a c or better then they could not play in sports or other activities.
