Like the Earth, Venus can be found in the Space stage in the Sol system. When the player first visits it, he will find that Venus is a mix between a Lava Planet and a Boiling Planet. The terrain is Orange with red water (though in reality, there shouldn't be anything). Slight hills and oceans cover the surface. Venus has Yellow Spice, and a colony can be placed.
[edit] Trivia
- In real life, Venus has a very thick, pale yellow atmosphere. Since Venus isn't a Gas Giant, The Spore Developers were forced create a reddish planet with a dense atmosphere, which shows what the actual surface may look like.
- When terraformed, the "lava" turns to blue water, which dries up a little as the planet is further terraformed to T-3.
- The lava on Venus is actually water, which is impossible, since Venus's temperature would turn water into vapor instantly.
- In real life the highest mountains on Venus are coated with an unknown ice like substance, as seen in radio pictures. However it is belived that the ice is actually a coating of tellurium. This substance is absent in the Spore version of Venus.
