text: Next, the author gives possible ways to study Venus safely, and effciently. The author states, "NASA's possible solution to the hostile conditions on the surface of Venus would allow scientists to float above the fray.". Stating ways that Venus can be studied with people not being put in danger helps get the authors point across. The article also touches on how floating above the surface could keep those studying the planet safe. Temperatures would still be high, but nothing the spacecraft couldn't handle, the air pressure would be like how it is on Earth at sea level, soloar power would be bountiful, and radiation would be no higher than the levels on Earth. The text then states, "Not easy conditions, but survivable for humans.". Although this would not be an easy job, it is possible to study Venus safely. The details used in this paragraph help convey the authors point that studying Venus can be done safely and that it should continue to happen.
