text: Venus is closer to our plant than we thought. Even thought its atmosphere contains clouds that are made out of higly corrosive acid. "The surface has a rocky sediment and includes familiar features such as valleys, mountians, and craters". The terrian is showen to be ruff but not unbarable for human colonization. Also Venus is one the closest planets to own own planetthan most others. The due to the ground condtions being hostile surveyers would need to be located 30 or more miles above the surface of the planet.
