Eve is the second planet from Kerbol, and only available in versions 0.17 and higher. It is purple in appearance. It has one small asteroid moon called Gilly.

Eve is the closest planet to Kerbin and the easiest to reach, requiring the least Delta-V of any planet. Having a similar size to Kerbin gives it a large gravity well and a thick atmospheric composition makes landings easier.
