text: Although the author may enjoy studying Venus and it's challenges, this study comes with it's difficulties. The author states in paragraph six, "Or maybe we should think of them as challenges."reffering to how they, "cannot take samples of rock, gas, or anything else, from a distance." The challenges they face predict how worthy of a pursuit Venus really is. The author states in paragraph five, "Not easy conditions, but survivable for humans." this meaning that this would be a risk, but they will survive.
