text: The first reason to learn more about Venus is how close it is from the sun. One example for this is when the text states,"Venus is the second planet from our sun." Which means that it is not very far away from earth. Another reason to study Venus is how similar it is to earth. An example for this is when the text states,"Venus is the closest planet to the Earth in terms of density and size." A final reason is that Venus may of had forms of life on it. Evidence for this statement is shown when the text states,"Long ago, Venus was probably covered largely with oceans and could have supported various forms of life, just like Earth." This statement shows how Venus could have been very, very similar to earth.
