Venus

Venus is the second-most planet from the Sun in the Milky Way galaxy's Solar System.

During the Golden Age, Venus was considered a "paradise," and the world was colonized by humanity. During this time, Venus was home to a human scientific research settlement that is now in ruins, swallowed by jungle and falling into the Venutian ocean.

Venus is also home to a massive Vex stronghold, a looming tower of geometric shapes that they vigorously defend.

Inhabitants

There are "Combatants" on Venus. The Vex are present, but it is unconfirmed whether other combatants are as well.

Locations

Venus is home to a number of locations that can be visited by Guardians. Below is a complete list of the known locations on Venus.
