4 Venus: The planet has a thick highpressure atmosphere (enough to crush us), very high temperatures and its atmosphere has clouds of
sulphuric acid (so the rain would be acid!).
5 Europa has evidence of water – which is essential for life.
6 Reduced fuel costs as there is less effort to escape a planet’s or moon’s gravitational pull. It would also be cheaper to re-supply the hotels too, for the same reason.
7 Open-ended research question.
