I agree with the strangeness of this atmospherical effect. Before the
current topic was known, I was experimenting atmosphere media for planetary
scenes. And once, I got this effect with highly directive scattering media
and found it interresting. The color is made by itself, no color_map...
With some other setting, it could be like an atomic explosion far away.

And when the topic "ICE & Fire" got to be known, I decided to re-use it. We
are on a strange planet, and the strange star produces strange effects. My
work on it now is to put 2 or 3 additional objects strangely affected by
the rise of the star: the tree becomes 'ardent' with an aura, I will
probably put an ice-cristal  which comes to flames, and I'd like to put
something in the 'atmosphere'.
