Basically the same as Mercury the rotation files are the same ,
of note is IAU_VENUS This is all Capitalized , that is the way it is in the rotation files
( If you want ,you can turn off the spice rotation for planets the default is so close that is hard to tell the difference other than a slight shift )
WARNING - for Linux and maybe Apple users ( Apple is an unknown at this time )
this file needs to be part of a single "SolarSystem.SPICE.ssc file
the c-Language read order is in affect on these Operating Systems
