Well, there's this one:

Any others?

Hmm... This should work for at least some of you.

well... then again, perhaps not.

Ah-ha! There we go.

Thanks, I see the picture now. Yeah, it looks weird. Those gas colony pictures for the other atmosphere types, I have imagined that big station to be floating in the air. But the gas/none station is just suspended in vacuum!

There were originally going to be six atmosphere types, but Argon got cut for whatever reason.

Argon was in SE3. So was Chlorine... that would be a nasty atmosphere to evolve in...

Yeah, I remember those green and purple colonies from SEIII. I seem to recall that the colony components came with built-in population and you didn't have to load people onto your colony ships. I haven't played SEIII since getting SEIV...

Yep, and there was no "type", just atmosphere. Ah, the simple days of SE3...
