Rate the following essay on its writing, argument, and language skills:
The author explains that Venus is a worthy pursuit despite the dangers because it is often referred to as the Earth's twin. Venus is the closest planet to Earth in terms of density and size. Venus still has some features that are analogous to those on Earth. According to NASA, it is a "compelling idea for sending humans to study Venus."

Venus has qualities that make it so much like Earth because they are the closest in distance and and they both orbit the sun at different speeds. The differences in speed mean that sometimes we are closer to Mars and other times to Venus. Venus's atmosphere has almost 97 percent carbon dioxide blankets. Even more challenging are the clouds of highly corrosive sulfurica acid in Venus's atmosphere. On the planet's surface, the temperatures averages over 800 degrees Fahrenheit, and the atmospheric pressure is 90 times greater than what we experience on our own planet.

Astronomers are fascinated by Venus because it may well once have been the most Earth- like planet in our solar system. A long time ago Venus was probably convered largely with various life forms and oceans, just like our planet earth today. The planet has other similar features to earth as well with a surface of rocky sediment that includes valleys, mountains, and craters. The article states that "Furthermore, recall that Venus can sometimes be our nearest option for a planetary visit, a crucial consideration given the long time frames of space travel."

NASA has one particularly compelling idea for sending humans to study Venus. Venus would allow scientists to float above the fray. Something to a blimp- like vehicle hovering 30 or so miles above the roiling Venusian landscape. Just as our jet airplanes

travel at a higher altitude to fly over many storms, a vehicle hovering over Venus would avoid the unfriendly conditions by staying up and out of their way. Solar power would be plentiful, and radiation would not exceed Earth levels. It wouldn't be easy conditions, but it would be survivable for humans.

By using a ship to orbit or hover it would be safely far above the planet and can provide only limited insight on the ground conditions because most forms of light cannot penetrate the dense atmosphere, rendering standard forms of photography and videography ineffective like taking samples of gas or rock or anything else from distance. Venus would need to get up close and personal despite the risks. NASA has been working on other approaches to studying Venus. Some simplied electronics that are made from silicon carbide have been tested in a chamber simulating the chaos of Venus's surface and have lasted for three weeks in such conditions. Technology has made it both difficult and easy.

The author supports the idea that studying Venus is a worthy pursuit despite the dangers by referring to the planet as Earth's twin and identifying how close the planet is to Earth. Astronomers are fascinated by Venus and explains how the features of Venus have earthlike qualities despite the atmospheric differences. NASA thinks that it is a compelling idea for humans to discover the planet and explains the risks of visiting such a planet and the benefits of visiting it. Technology has made an impact on finding more about Venus.
