  This will create a sphere of clouds centered on the camera, not on the
center of the Earth. That is, the clouds will be extremely unrealistic.

  The easiest way of creating more realistic-looking clouds is to use
a plane.

-- 
plane{-x+y,-1pigment{bozo color_map{[0rgb x][1rgb x+y]}turbulence 1}}
sphere{0,2pigment{rgbt 1}interior{media{emission 1density{spherical
density_map{[0rgb 0][.5rgb<1,.5>][1rgb 1]}turbulence.9}}}scale
