It may be another fifteen years before spacecraft from Earth again venture to Mars, a planet now known to be cold, dry, and probably lifeless.

A. Same as in sentence
B. venture to Mars again, a planet now known for being
C. will venture to Mars again, a planet now known as being
D. venture again to Mars, a planet that is known now to be
E. will again venture to Mars, a planet known now as being

Correct if I am wrong in 'A'

Earth again venture to Mars - sounds incorrect.

C. will venture to Mars again, a planet now known as being
D. venture again to Mars, a planet that is known now to be
E. will again venture to Mars, a planet known now as being
E IMO.
I am pretty sleepy so please forgive anything silly in my post.
Ok. So I removed A, B and D because of sub-verb agreement. With "spacecraft", we should have "ventures". Out of C and E, I chose E because Mars is kept near to ", a planet...".
I didn't use any high funda logic for this SC. May be I am wrong :(
Please provide the OA.

Thanks

Guys OA is A, I just came to know that spacecraft can be singular or plural :(
A very good discussion is given at this link https://gmatclub.com/forum/spacecraft-fr ... 81315.html
Please look at it.
