Lakshmi Planum is a plateau feature on the surface of Venus on the Western Ishtar Terra. It is named after Lakshmi, the Hindu goddess of wealth.
It is roughly 3.5 kilometers (2.2 mi) above the mean planetary radius. Lakshmi Planum is ringed by intensely deformed terrain, some of which is shown in the southern portion of the image and is called Clotho Tessera.[1]
The plains of Lakshmi are made up of radar-dark, homogeneous, smooth lava flows.[2]
