Controls
Owner Flag The flag of the owning empire will be displayed in the upper-left corner of the window. This will be the empire that owns the colony on this planet. You can right-click the flag to display the Race Report Window - Detail about this race.
Planet Picture The picture of the planet is displayed in the upper-left corner of the report window.
Status Icons To give you a quick look at the capabilities and status of this colony, status icons are displayed at the bottom of the planet picture. These will tell you the general capabilities of the planet. See Status Icons for more details.
Name The name of this planet.
Type The physical type and size of this planet. Possible planet types are Rock, Gas, and Ice. Possible sizes for a planet range from Tiny to Huge. Different planet types require different colonization technology to create a colony there. Planet size dictates how much population, facilities, and cargo that planet can hold.
Atmosphere The atmosphere type of this planet. Possible atmosphere types are Oxygen, Hydrogen, Carbon Dioxide, Methane, and None. Each race can only breathe one atmosphere type. If the race on the planet cannot breathe the atmosphere, then the colony will be "Domed". A Domed colony cannot hold as many people or facilities.
Conditions These are the environmental conditions on the planet. Possible values for conditions range from Pleasant to Deadly. Conditions represent how difficult the environment on the planet would be to live in. The worse the conditions the more unhappy your people will become and the slower their reproduction will be.
Value

This is the relative value of the planet in Minerals, Organics, and Radioactives (see Resources Types for more details). In a normal game, this will be shown as a percentage value. This percentage is a modifier placed on the amount of that resources type that you produce on the planet. There is an unlimited supply of resources that the planet can generate.

In a Finite Resources game, the value of the planet will be displayed as the actual number of resources that remain on the planet. As you produce that type of resource on the planet, the total remaining will decrease.

Description This is a general description for the planet.
Colony Type The colony type is a description of the purpose of the colony. You can set it when you colonize a planet to help you categorize your colonies. It is also useful for your Ministers (see the Ministers Window) so that they know what your intention for the colony is as well.
Population

This is the total amount of population that is present on the planet out of how much total population can be present. The maximum amount of population a planet can hold is based on the planet size and whether it is a "Domed" planet or not. If the colony is Domed, then a small dome status icon will appear after the maximum population.

After the population number, there will also be a small icon for the race that is present on the planet. If there is more than one race present, there will be an icon for each different race. If you right-click on a race icon, you will display a window which shows how much population of each race is present on the planet. If there is one race on the planet which cannot breathe the atmosphere, then the colony is considered "Domed".

Reproduction This is the current reproduction rate for your population on the planet. It changes depending on the conditions of the planet and the population's happiness.
Mood This is a description of the happiness of the population on the planet. The happiness of a population modifies how many resources are produced by the planet. If a population grows angry, it may riot or even rebel. See Happiness for more details.
Resource Production This displays the current amount of resources produced by this planet.
Research This display the current number of research points produced by this planet. See the Research Window for more details.
Intelligence This display the current number of intelligence points produced by this planet. See the Intelligence Window for more details.
Under Construction If there is an item currently being constructed by the planet, it is displayed here. The items in this planet's construction queue can be changed in the Set Construction Queue Window.
