It's earth's twin and how it was much like earth before,in paragraph 4 it says venus was probable covered largely with oceans and how it could of had various forms of life like earh is today. It also says how today Venus still has features analogous to Earth,how the surface is rocky sediment and has features such as valleys,mountains,and craters. And then the author said "Venus can sometimes be the nearest option for planetary visit."
