text: Venus is just like Earth in many ways and the only way to find out if it use to have water, and supported various forms of life is to travel to Venus. "Astronomers are fascinated by Venus because it may well once have been the most-Earth-like planets in out solar system." They have made the hypothesis that Venus could've been just like Earth because they still have some of the features that we have on Earth today. "The planet has a surface of rocky sediment and includes familiar features such as valleys, mountains, and craters." Since our twin is our neighbor planet the comparison between the time frame of Mars and Venus. Venus would have the shorter time since it is closer which means that we could do something and figure it out faster than we did when we went to Mars. "Furthermore, recall that Venus can sometimes be our nearest option for planetary visit, a crucial consideration given the long time frames of space travel." Even if we could travel to Venus there are always risks to going on many excursions like this.
