text: In conclusion, the author does a very good job of supporting his claim by describing the dangers in great detail and then comparing these dangers to the reasons people still want to explore the planet. In doing so, the author is able to effectively communicate with the reader about why NASA continutes to try to explore Venus. In the future, this article could inspire future scientists to come up with a new way to explore the surface of Venus.  In the American Public School system, education is primarily compromised of students physically attending their school and learning from teachers in person. However, with the rise of technology and the internet in the 21st century, students at most public schools are able to participate in learning both online and via video conferences, allowing them to effectively be educated from home. Distance learning in this way permits students to work on school subjects, even when away due being ill in some manner, and allows students with mental health disorders unable to attend classes the opportunity to achieve the same as someone attending school physically. Additionally, students working a job outside of school to support their family/self now have the opportunity to attend school from home/work and still be able to provide financial support to dependents/themselves. In short, distance learning is beneficial to students in public schools for students missing school due to sickness, mental health issues, and careers clashing with school scheduling.
