text: Also, the author uses a lot of facts about the planets, specially from Venus and Earth. As the author says in the article (pararaph 4), "Long ago,, Venus was probably covered largely with oceans and could have supported various forms of life, just like Earth... Today, Venus still has some features that are analogous to those on earth. The planet has a surface of rcky sediment and includes familiar features such as valley, mountains, and craters". The author use a lot of descriptive words and try to connect it to the Earth features.
