text: The first reason I don't think the author supports the idea is because more than half of the essay is them talking about how Venus is awful when it comes to the actual form and environment of Venus. The environment of Venus was spoken about throughout the essay stating "97 percent carbon dioxide blankets Venus. Even more challenging are the clouds of highly corrosive sulfuric acis in Venus's atmosphere." This is creates huge challenge for scientists to explore Venus. The plsnet is also too hot like 10x way too hot. It states in the article, "On the planet's surface, temperatures average over 800 degrees fahrenheit, and the atmospheric pressure is 90 times greater than what we experience on our own planet." The author talks about how the environment is SO extreme that it would crush submarines and liquefy many metals.
