In the reading passage, the author proposes the reasons why maintaining a human presence on Venus is not feasible. Whereas, the lecturer formulates a solution to the problems by constructing a floating station at the height of 50 kilometers from Venus' surface, all the problems mentioned could be resolved.
According to the reading, the atmospheric pressure at Venus' surface is 90 times larger than that on Earth. Everything would be crushed on Venus when landing. The lecturer refutes this argument and suggests that at the height of 50 kilometers the atmospheric pressure would be the equivalent of that on Earth, which is much lower and bearable.
Second, the author states that the lack of adequate oxygen and water vapor makes Venus inhospitable and that transporting these elements from Earth would be too impractical. The lecturer counters this view, providing another solution. If astronauts utilize carbon dioxide and sulfuric acid in Venus' atmosphere, they could generate oxygen and water by these compounds. Therefore, they don't have to import oxygen and water from Earth anymore.
Third, the author claims that thick clouds deter sunlight from reaching the surface as most sunlight is reflected back into space by thick clouds. Without enough solar energy, machines won't be able to operate. The lecturer contends that the floating station is in a favorable position that it could receive more sunlight than on the planet's surface. Both the light traveling above and reflected below could be absorbed by the station. Accordingly, there would be sufficient electricity to power the machines and equipment.
