text: One thing that the authro does well to support his idea is he gives a lot of compelling resons of why he thiks venus is worth exploring. One of the reasons why he things its worth exploring is because they can find out what venus is made up of by taking rock samples. I think this is a good reason becuase it explains how the author wants to explore venus despite its dangers. Another reason why he thinks it should be explored despite its dangers is becuase they can figure out why there is no life on venus. I also think this is a good reason becuase it proves why venus should be explored even though it is dangerous according to the author.
