Planet Venus Flag
Venus Flag
The flag of Venus features a pyramid made with an orange base and large yellow capstone. In the center of the yellow capstone is a red disc. Along the upper fly is a the letter B turned on its side.
The letter B is a reference to Russia's early exploration of this planet, since they use the letter B to represent the V sound in English. The red dot is a remembrance to Venera 3, the first human spacecraft to reach another on a planet.
The letter V is only noticeable when it is held upside down.
