text: Venus can be seen from humans on Earth because of it being the closest planet to Earth and because of how red and bright it is. The planet may not be as big as Earth, but the brightness of the planet makes the planet seem much bigger than it actually is. Scientists from NASA are coming up with an idea to send humans to study Venus. The author states that the scientists' solution is that they will allow these scientists to float above and survey since they would not be allowed to land on the planet because of how hot it is. They could take videos and pictures of the planet circling around it.
