In the story "The Challenge of Exploring Venus" the author likes to talk about how important Venus is and how dangerous it is. The auother starts the story by giving us some points about Venus, on how it is known by the "Evening Star" and it is the second closest planet to the sun. A little further in the story the auother gives us an idea how dangerous it is, one point being how thick the atmosphere is in Venus. But then giving us information on why this planet is imporatant, by telling the readers that this is the most Earth-like planet. Then giving us another example of how dangerous it is to even be close to the planet.

One of the first points the auother made was on how thick the amotsphere is. As this being one of the first points that they said it must be one of the most important things to know, on why it is dangerous to here even land there. The auother goes on getting more into detail about how thick the atmophere is and "almost 97 percent" is carbon dioxide, and then explaing to the reader that the atmospheric pessure is "90 time greter than what we experience on our own planet". These conditions are no match for a human as it can "crush even a submarine," thus showing how bad the conditions are for any human. In this topic the auother does very good on his explantions giving the reader information on how bad the atmosphere is, and giving good examples.

Further into the story the author goes into why the planet Venus is so important. Not saying this right away but as you go on to read paragraph 4 the auother brings up on that Venus is the "most Earth-like planet". The auother estimates that Venus had life like things with large oceans and "supported various forms of life". Venus still has some Earth features such as "valleys, mountrains,and craters". The auother does not go into this as much but still gave good examples and enough informatuion.

Keeping our distance from Venus is very important. This point kind of brings us back to the atmosphere being so dangerous. the auother goes in om talking about how we have ti keep our distance because of the ground condtions. But hovering the planet limit "insight on ground condtions," because of the dense atmosphere. This will not stop us from trying to get closer to the planet, as many researchers are " working on innvations that would allow our machines to last long enough to contribute meaningfully to our knowledgeof Venus. The auother did enough infortmation and was good enough for readers to picture how bad the condtions were but there

is still an up side to it.

Bringing all the points together. The auother making good statements, readers might say we should risk the condtions. If the auother is very right with these points, readers will say we should risk the condtions and go for a new life. As we sit here and waste this beautiful planet we could be trying to have a new life in new condtions.
