text: Venus is the same size as Earth and that could be good or it could be bad. Life could be possible because it is almost in the goldilocks zone, but scientists would have to find a way to help with the heat. It has a rocky surface just like Venus and there is evidence that it was possibly covered in water at one point. The planet is one of Earth's best choices of survival. Since Venus is almost the same size as Earth, it should be safe to travel there.
