text: Next, NASA has thought about sending an aircraft to Venus but they have ran into some problems on the way. One of the problems they have ran into is that they cant get close enough to the planet to get any samples or even see whats on the ground. In the text it says, "At thirty plus miles above the surface, temperatures would still be toasty at around 170 degrees Fahrenheit, but the air pressure would be close to the sea level on Earth." This is showing that none of the equimpment that NASA has is strong enough to get close to Venus.
