In the reading passage, the author claims that people can by no means maintain a permanent human presence on Venus. However, the following listening material entirely challenged the statement made by the writer. The speaker contends that it is possible to set up a permanent station on Venus floating above the surface by 50 kilometers.
To begin with, the author states that the pressure on the surface of Venus was too high to survive for human beings: both people and equipment cannot avoid being crashed. On the other hand, the speaker says that if we try to set up the station 50 kilometers above the surface, then the pressure would no longer be a problem since the pressure there is much lower than that at the surface. It is even approximately equal to the normal pressure on earth. Thus there is no more danger for people to be crushed.
Second, according to the professor in the lecture, the demanding of water and oxygen will no longer be a problem. Although there is little water and oxygen in the atmosphere of Venus, as the article says, there are chemical processes that could be used to make them using materials that can easily be obtained from the atmosphere of Venus. Apparently, this point disagrees with statement demonstrated in the reading material.
Third, the reading states that people could not use solar power cells to power their machines and equipment because most of the sunlight was prevented by the thick clouds of Venus. Disagreeing with this, the speaker argues against this in two angles: first, the clouds above the station will be much thinner because of the height, so there is considerable sunlight that can go through the clouds; second, the station can gain more light by making use of the reflection from clouds below it. Therefore, the combination of both direct sunlight from the sun and the reflection from below clouds is enough to power the station.
