You cannot apply media to a sky_sphere. Sky spheres are not objects
like spheres, cylinders, and boxes. You can think of them as more
like a fancy light source.

Examples of media can be found in the following location / listed by name
if you followed the standard POV-Ray for windows installation.

Directory of C:\Program Files\POV-Ray for Windows v3.1\scenes\interior\media

GALAXY.POV
HOLLOW1.POV
HOLLOW2.POV
HOLLOW3.POV
MEDIA1.POV
MEDIA2.POV
MEDIA3.POV
MEDIA4.POV
MEDIA5.POV


 Also check the povray.binaries.scene-files and povray.text.scene-files
groups for more examples posted by visitors to this news server. I have
posted at least four examples that I can recall off hand and many others
have done the same.


A couple of online media tutorials exist at -

Also see my home page for a media example that shows you how to use
color list patterns (i.e. brick, checker, and hexagon) using media -

There are also more media examples available at the POV-Ray objects
collection, a candle flame example I submitted, and a flame thrower
flame from H.E. Day - Both in the burning and fire section -

And lastly for the ultimate resource of complex media statement check out
this site based on the IRTC award winning image "First Strike at Pearl" -
