Question 19 • TX-Earth and Space Science A

Scientists want to eventually collect data from the surface of Venus.Which is a technology that could be used to collect samples and determine if it was habitable?

Answer
A
a rover vehicle that can withstand the harsh Venus environment
B
satellites that predict locations for water formation on Venus
C
computer simulations that model the formation of Venus
D
a telescope that records information about the weather patterns on Venus

Explanation

To collect samples from Venus’s surface, scientists need a device that can travel on the ground and handle Venus’s extreme heat and pressure. A rover built to withstand those conditions could gather samples and help assess whether the surface is habitable. Satellites, simulations, and telescopes can provide information but do not collect surface samples.
