Rate the following essay on its writing, argument, and language skills:
In "The Challenege of Exploring Venus", the author belives that studying Venus can provide insight on the planet and also provide new discoveries. The author uses the idea that humans can't help but explore against the reader to prove that studying Venus is a worthy pursuit despite the dangers it presents.

If Mars fails to host the human race, we might still have a chance, and that chance is called the "Evening Star" also known as Venus. The authors main point of the passage all revolves around the idea that we will explore Venus someday, or maybe even live there. In the passage it states " Astronomers are fascinated by Venus because it may well once have been the most Earth-like planet in our solar system" (4). The author isn't saying we should study Venus for fun, he's saying that people will start studying it eventually. In the passage it also states, "Solar power would be plentiful and radiation would not exceed Earth levels. Not easy conditions, but survivable for humans" (5). Venus might one day be our last hope which is the reason why the author is trying to convey people to start studying it.

All in all, human courisity as said by the author will lead us everywhere. Venus though, will bring people insight on the planet and new discoveries despite the dangers, and the author supports that idea very well.
