The student is comparing the Moon and Earth.

To answer this question, we need to identify the two objects being compared based on their characteristics. In this case, the student mentions that one side of the Venn diagram is for objects that have surface features such as mountains, valleys, and volcanoes, while the other side is for objects that cannot be landed on because there is no solid surface.

From the given response options, only one pair of objects fits these descriptions - the Moon and Earth. The Moon has surface features like mountains, valleys, and volcanoes, while the Earth is a solid planet that can be landed on. Therefore, the student is comparing the Moon and Earth in their Venn diagram.
