text: Overall, after reading this article, I believe that the author fully backed up his reasoning for why "studying Venus is a worthy pursuit despite of the dangers it presents.". If we continue to make new discoveries and try new things, we will have endless posibilities and new things to learn everyday. Like the author said " Our travels on Earth and beyond should not be limited by dangers and doubts but should be expanded to meet the very edges of imagination and innovation.Have you ever wanted to make new friends or get a job easier? Extracurricular activities can help with that. Lots of people don't take advantage of this useful tool you get in school. There are many different types of extracurricular activities and there is always something for everyone. I believe everyone should participate in an extracurricular activity because it is fun to try something new, you can meet new people, and it can help later in life.
