text: The atuthor talks about how humans have sent numerous spacecraft to land on Venus but none of them survived. He also talks about NASA has been working on other approaches to studying Venus, like a silicon carbide has been tested in caber simulating the environment of Venus's surface. It has lasted for three weeks in that type of conditions. If they keep testing and fixing or inproven the project then they maybe one day make a another one that can surive that type of environment and get the researchers the samples they need to learn more about Venus.
