text: The author does very well arguing his or her point. I agree with the author, I think he or she made some very well stated points about why humans should work everyday to get closer and closer to Venus. There are many arguing points as to why poeple would think that it is good or bad to try to send spacecrafts, let alone humans, to Venus. Starting out with the dissadvantages, the planet's surface is over 800 degrees, obviously not suitable for humans, or any life force for that matter, to survive. Venus has a hotter surface temperature than any other planet in our solar system, even though Mercury is closer to our sun, due to the atmosphere made up of almsot 97 percent carbon.
