The interest of a spectroscopic investigation of the upper atmosphere of Venus in the ultraviolet is briefly shown. The conditions for the observations to be made are defined and the main properties of the necessary instrument are deduced and described. The proposed package is a quadruple miniature spectrometer covering the entire spectral range extending from 1200 Å to 8000 Å with a resolving power of 500.
