You could use scattering media together with radiosity but that would be
very slow. A faster method would be to first render a spherical image map of
the scattering media sky and then map this onto the sky and render with
radiosity. You perhaps need to do some post process to get the right
brightness and contrast or just play with radiosity brightness.
