The field distribution in the magnetospheric tail of Venus determined from the Venera 9 and 10 data has been found generally consistent with the model of an induced magnetosphere associated with unipolar induction currents. In some cases the observed field configuration can be explained in terms of various transient processes, in particular those related to interplanetary magnetic field variation. It is shown that the force lines of the interplanetary magnetic field are 'moved apart' by solar wind flowing past Venus, which creates the effect of flowing around an obstacle. The observed field configurations are in good agreement with laboratory model experiments.
