Answer the following question by reasoning step-by-step. Can you go water skiing on Venus?
Water skiing requires sufficient area on a smooth stretch of water, one or two skis, a tow boat with tow rope, two or three people, and a personal flotation device. Venus has a mean surface temperature of 863 °F. There may have been substantial quantities of liquid water on the surface of Venus at one point, but after a period of 600 million to several billion years, a runaway greenhouse effect was caused by the evaporation of that original water. Therefore, the final answer is no.
