Angel's Venture

Angel's Venture was a Tundra Planet in Helldivers 2, located within the Orion Sector. It was the first victim of the 
Meridian Black Hole's movement.
Lore
Operation Valiant Enclosure
The liberation and defense of Heeth and Angel's Venture were crucial in Operation Valiant Enclosure, allowing Super Earth to reach the Umlaut Sector, where its planets would host the Terminid Control System. Heeth and Angel's Venture were liberated in Phase I and defended in Phase II.
Supercolony Outbreaks
A few weeks after the success of Operation Valiant Enclosure, the TCS, initially keeping away the Terminids, had begun to malfunction, causing sudden Terminid gene mutations and outbreaks. Meridia, one of the Barrier Planets, quickly became a Terminid Supercolony. The spores from the corrupted planet would spread to the nearby planets of Angel's Venture, Heeth, Veld, and Acamar IV, causing outbreaks. The Helldivers, ordered to liberate these planets from further Terminid outbreaks, were not completely successful; Super Earth citizens from these planets were forced to evacuate.
SEAF Training Facilities
In response to the failure of the TCS and significant Automaton galactic control, Angel's Venture, Heeth, Aesir Pass, and Vernen Wells, were selected as sites to construct new training facilities for Super Earth Armed Forces recruits. The Helldivers, who were ordered to defend these planets to allow for safe facility construction, successfully protected them. The facilities increased SEAF support to the front lines, and boosted liberation efforts across the galaxy. This support would be active as long as the aforementioned planets were under Super Earth control.
Automaton Petafactory on Varylia 5
During the push to capture the Automaton Petafactory on Varylia 5, Meridia's Supercolony began spewing spores that would reach Angel's Venture, putting the training facility there at risk. The Helldivers were able to push away the Terminids, protecting the facility.
Operation Enduring Peace
In Phase I of Operation Enduring Peace, Angel's Venture, Fenrir III, and Turing were secured as staging grounds crucial to resolving the Meridia Supercolony crisis. The Major Order would not only provide a route to Meridia, but would also provide Super Earth enough time to weaponize the Dark Fluid, exotic Illuminate matter. The Helldivers would be successful in their liberation of the planets, allowing Operation Enduring Peace to proceed smoothly.
Defense of X-45
Some time during the defense of X-45, SEAF conscription had reached its target numbers. The surviving SEAF training facilities on Angel's Venture and Heeth were shut down and converted to recreational campgrounds for the Democratic Youth Scouts, ending the liberation boost from the SEAF.
Staffing of the DSS
In order to fully man the Democracy Space Station, numerous skilled workers were needed. Colonists from the Gloom-adjacent planets Terrek, Cirrus and Angel's Venture proved most eager to serve, and thus those planets were chosen as recruitment grounds. Helldivers were ordered to hold these planets in the face of the spread of the Gloom, and were successful in defending the planets.
Gloom Outbreaks
Due to its proximity to the Gloom, Angel's Venture was in the path of accelerated spore outbreaks. Ordered to defend multiple planets from a wave of Terminid outbreaks, Helldivers managed to successfully protect Angel's Venture from an outbreak originating from Heeth, though at the cost of temporarily losing Cirrus.
Fate of Angel's Venture
After the Meridian Black Hole began moving due to the 
Illuminate's harvesting of Dark Energy, it was deduced that it was headed on a direct path for Angel's Venture. High Command ordered the Helldivers to crush any Illuminate invasions as quickly as possible in order to slow the Black Hole. Despite valiant efforts to slow down Dark Energy accumulation, the Illuminate maintained considerable momentum. This was enough to accelerate the Meridian Black Hole into an inevitable collision with Angel's Venture.
As a result, on February 13, 2185, Angel's Venture was annihilated by the Meridian Black Hole. High Command states that high-priority citizens were evacuated, but mourned the loss of "citizens whose evacuation could not be prioritized" and the Democratic Youth Scouts campground. The President of Super Earth would also order a 24 hour Galaxy-wide mourning.
Following Angel's Venture's annihilation, Moradesh became the next planet threatened by the Black Hole.
Terrain
The landscape was decorated with bright pink and green foliage that gave the planet a peaceful atmosphere.
